Abstract |
In order to meet increasing global demand for energy and to compensate for the depletion of fossil fuel supplies in coming years, some alternative clean energy sources is a need. Bio-diesels are one of the alternative fuels which can minimize the consumption of fossil fuels and can also meet the environmental concerns. In our work, the feasibility of Soapnut (Sapindus Mukorossi) bio-diesel is being investigated experimentally on engine performance. Soapnut bio-diesel blends with petro-diesel were tested on four stroke cylinder CI engine and the engine performance parameters were studied for low, medium and high loads on blends B5, B10 and B20 without any modification in engine design. |
