Abstract
An experimental study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of supercharging and using diethyl ether as an additive to biodiesel blend on the performance and emission of a direct injection diesel engine. The mahua biodiesel and diesel are blended with diethyl ether (DEE) in the ratio of 0:100:0, 15:80:5, 20:75:5, 25:70:5, 100:0:0 by volume and tested in CI engine. The results obtained were compared with neat diesel, there was slightly lower brake specific fuel consumption for diesel-biodiesel blend. Strong reduction in emissions was observed with diesel – biodiesel-DEE at various engine loads. Methyl ester of mahua biodiesel at 20% and DEE 5% blend with 75% diesel gave best performance in terms of low smoke intensity and emissions characteristics. The optimum blend, M20 (D75M20A5) fuel is used in diesel engine with supercharged condition. In this experimental work M20 blend at 20% supercharging gave best performance in terms of low smoke intensity and emission characteristics.
Keywords- Diesel, biodiesel, diethyl ether, performance, emission
