Abstract

An experimental investigation was performed to find out the change in properties of gasoline by blending of acetone in fuel. The additive is a liquid which is add in the fuel to improve their properties which is responsible for combustion in engine. The addictive improve fuels burn rate, increase surface area, prevent corrosive effects and increase the efficiency of engine The main objective of experiment to find effect of acetone on properties of fuel. acetone is readily available chemical added in gasoline to improve the fuel ability to vaporize completely by reducing the surface tension it increases the mileage, increases power, engine life and performance, less unburned fuel going past the rings keeps the rings and engine oil in far better condition it can stop the black smoke when the rack is all the way at full throttle it can reduces hydrocarbon emission. it can reduce the formation of water ice crystals in below zero weather which can damage the fuel filter. Form the experiment it's found that The kinematic viscosity ,Surface tension and HC emissions is reduces by blending acetone in gasoline .But the only one thing is increases that is mileage of vehicle.
