Abstract |
The performance and emission characteristics of a constant speed single cylinder four stroke diesel engine fuelled with biodiesel (B100) are studied and compared with base diesel. The biodiesel is produced from Karanja oil by transesterification process has been used in this study. Experiments has been conducted at 100% load and at compression ratios of 18:1, 19:1 and 20:1. The impact of compression ratio on performance and exhaust gas emissions has been studied and presented. Best compression ratio which gives better performance and less emission has been identified. The results indicate higher brake thermal efficiency, lower fuel consumption and increasing trend in NOx emission. |
