Trial Concentrates on Usage of Biogas with Biodiesel/ Diesel Mixes in a CI Motor

Abstract

diesel-powered engine. A diesel engine cannot be powered solely by biogas because vaporous fuel cannot be burned under pressure. Through the use of an air-biogas blender device, it is often supplied to the CI motors in double fuel mode. The aim of this work is to study the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel-biodiesel-biogas dual fuel mode diesel engine using a venturi gas mixer to create a homogeneous mixture. The exhibition and emanation qualities of the motor worked by double fuel mode were tentatively examined, and contrasted with diesel. Biogas introduced at a flow rate of 1 L/min was found to have superior performance and lower emission than biogas introduced at other flow rates. On the other hand, when compared to diesel, dual-fuel mode with a biogas flow rate of BD10 BG@1L/min demonstrated an average decrease in BTE of 9.94% and an increase in BSFC of 8.82 percent. Though an augmentation in CO and HC by 5.18% and 3.01% separately and a typical decrease in NOx outflows by 14.91% when contrasted with diesel.
