Performance and emission evaluation of biodiesel fueled diesel engine abetted with exhaust gas recirculation and Ni coated catalytic converter
This article summarizes the results of a laboratory exertion to evaluate the performance and emission parameters of a single cylinder, water cooled, direct injection diesel engine with and without the aid of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), as well as with and without the assistance of nickel coated catalytic converter. Neat diesel, ethyl esters of waste frying oil (B100), and its diesel blends (B20 and B40) were used as test fuels to assess the various engine operating parameters. Conjointly, in this work, the effects of emission characteristics by incorporating nickel coated catalytic converter along with 0&percent;, 15&percent;, and 20&percent; of HOT EGR technique are elaborately discussed. Experimental results proved that the diesel engine operated up to B40 blends assisted by catalytic converter, and 15&percent; EGR level showed an adequate reduction in oxides of nitrogen in the exhaust pipe. Also, EGR level up to 15&percent; proved reasonable brake thermal efficiency and specific fuel consumption when the test engine operated up to B40 biodiesel-diesel blends.
