ENERGY ANALYSIS OF KARANJA OIL AS A SUPPLEMENTARY FUEL FOR COMPRESSION IGNITION ENGINE

The paper highlights the results of an experimental investigation carried out on Karanjaoil as a supplementary for diesel fuel in Compression Ignition engine. In the presentstudy, triglycerides of Karanja oil is converted into mono-ester (biodiesel) using basedcatalyst transesterfication process. Ka...

In the presentstudy, triglycerides of Karanja oil is converted into mono-ester (biodiesel) using basedcatalyst transesterfication process. Karanja biodiesel is blended with petroleum dieselin the volumetric proportions of 2−10%. Results reveal that the performancecharacteristics of Karanja biodiesel blends are well comparable with diesel fuel. Theemission characteristics such as CO, HC and smoke are found to be lower for Karanjabiodiesel blends at all the engine load conditions compared to diesel fuel. Hence, it isconcluded that Karanja oil at lower blends can be used in diesel engine without anysubstantial engine modification.http://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=283243518002
