Comprehensive Comparative Study of the Durability Wear Assessment of a Diesel Engine Fuelled with Seed Oil and Diesel Fuel and Its Troubleshooting and Scheduled Maintenance.

Existing ecofriendly apprehensions about climate change have directed scientists to discover plant-based vegetable oils for use as fuels, such as straight vegetable oils and their biodiesels, because of their renewability, nontoxic nature, biodegradability, and environmental friendliness. This experimental study intended to reveal the tribological aspects of 90 °C preheated straight vegetable oil (PHSVO90) used in a 7.35 kW, 1000 rpm constant speed indirect injection (IDI) diesel engine and likened to conventional diesel operation by conducting an elongated term durability examination for 512 h as per IS:10000 standards.

Development of an ammonia-biodiesel dual fuel combustion engine's injection strategy map using response surface optimization and artificial neural network prediction.

The study intends to calibrate the compression ignition (CI) engine split injection parameters as efficiently. The goal of the study is to find the best split injection parameters for a dual-fuel engine that runs on 40% ammonia and 60% biodiesel at 80% load and a constant speed of 1500 rpm with the CRDi system. To optimize and forecast split injection settings, the RSM and an ANN model are created.

Experimental Investigation for Determining an Ideal Algal Biodiesel-Diesel Blend to Improve the Performance and Mitigate Emissions Using a Response Surface Methodology.

The ongoing depletion of the world's fossil fuel sources and environmental damage has compelled the quest for alternative energy. Excellent characteristics of biodiesel include its renewable nature, safety, absence of sulfur, environmental advantages, and biodegradability, which can eradicate the above problems. In this study, algal oil was characterized to obtain the fatty acid profile, and the free fatty acid value of algal oil suggested a two-step process of esterification and transesterification for efficient biodiesel production.

Experimental Investigation on the PCCI Engine Fueled by Algal Biodiesel Blend with CuO Nanocatalyst Additive and Optimization of Fuel Combination for Improved Performance and Reduced Emissions at Various Load Conditions by RSM Technique.

Fossil fuel depletion and environmental pollution are paramount problems the world faces. Despite several measures, the transportation industry is still battling to manage these issues. A combined approach of fuel modification for low-temperature combustion with combustion enhancers could offer a breakthrough.

Experimental Studies on Thermal-Barrier-Coated Engine Fuelled by a Blend of Eucalyptus Oil And DEE.

The present experiment deals with the study of the effect of addition of diethyl ether (DEE) on the performance and emission characteristics of a thermal-barrier-coated (TBC) engine run on papaw (Carica papaya) and eucalyptus oil blends. The fuels studied were test blends, CPME30Eu70 (papaw methyl ester 30% and eucalyptus oil 70%) and CPME30Eu70 + 10% DEE, and diesel. Optimum results were obtained for CPME30Eu70 with DEE in a TBC engine.
