Abstract
An experimental evaluation of using pongamia oil, neem oil and coconut oil as an alternate Diesel engine fuel has been conducted in the present work. The blends (B30, B40, B60, B80 and B100) of various proportions of these alternate fuels and diesel are used to run a single cylinder, four stroke, water cooled diesel engine and significant improvements in engine performance characteristics are observed. For combustion characteristics, a slightly shorter ignition delay and longer combustion duration were found with the use of alternate fuels under all loading operations. Brake thermal efficiency for B60 (60% pongamia oil and 40% diesel) is higher when compared with other blends. Indicated thermal efficiency for B80 (80% pongamia oil and 20% diesel) is greater when compared with other blends. Mechanical efficiency for N30 (30% neem oil and 70% diesel) is comparatively high when compared with other blends.
