In this paper four new emulsions were prepared by mixing 0.5% tween 85 and 0.5% span 80 with diesel fuel using 10% aqueous metal salt solution with concentration of 0.4 mol/dm 3. The performance and emission tests were carried out by using these fuels in single cylinder water cooled diesel engine. The results were compared with that of diesel and c...

Context 1
... exhaust gas leaving the cylinder determines the extent of temperature reached during the combustion pro- cess. With increase in load, the temperature of the exhaust gases increases for all the fuels as shown in Figure 6. It is also observed that the exhaust gas temperature increases with base diesel fuel compared with other emulsified fuels. ...

Experimental work was conducted to evaluate the effect of compression ratio on performance and emission by using conventional diesel fuel on the single cylinder four stroke variable compression ratio (VCR) engine. The compression ratio is a factor that influences the performance characteristics of an internal combustion engines. This work is an exp...

... Efektem tego procesu jest poprawa jakości mieszaniny paliwowej, która spala się z większą sprawnością oraz mniejszą emisją szkodliwych składników spalin. Sendilvelan oraz Bhaskar w swojej pracy [4] poświęconej aspektom ekologicznym spalania mikroemulsji potwierdzili, że jej użycie przyczynia się do znaczącego obniżenia emisji NOx, THC oraz zadymienia spalin w stosunku do silnika zasilanego konwencjonalnym paliwem. Podobne rezultaty opisano w pracy Lif oraz Holmberg [5]. ...

The paper presents research results of selected fuel microemulsions. In particular the corrosion properties of these microemulsions were investigated. Necessary research was carried out in line with requirements of ASTM D130 standard for fuel microemulsions containing 4 and 8 % by volume of distillated water dispersed in diesel oil. On the base of research results, it can be stated that both tested fuel microemulsions had unfavourable corrosion properties when compared to diesel oil and distillated water
