modelling and analysis of compression ignition engine by fuzzy logic using biodiesel

mechanical engineering

The knowledge of an expert can be coded in the form a rule-base, and used in decision making. The main advantage of Fuzzy Logic is that it can be tuned and adapted if necessary, thus enhancing the degree of freedom of control. It is also a non-linear structure, and this is especially useful in a complex system such as an advanced power train.Bio diesel, which is defined as a mono alkyl esters of long chain fatty acids derived from biological sources like vegetable oils and animal fats, which is proposed to replace a significant percentage of petroleum diesel in this century. Moreover bio diesel produced from oil seeds, vegetable oil cannot meet realistic need and it can be used only for a small fraction of existing demand for transport fuels. Increasing energy prices, energy and environment security concerns about petroleum based fuels are drawing considerable attention among researchers to find an alternate source of fuel.
