Biodiesel created from pongamia oil has been considered as promising alternative
for diesel motors on account of its natural agreeableness. In this work, biodiesel from
pongamia oil is readied (PME 100), tried on a diesel motor for various mixes, for
example, PME 25, PME 50, PME 75 and PME 100. Correlation is made with diesel
operation. Parameters, for example, brake thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel
consumption, carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons, and smoke and NOx discharges
are assessed. Despite the fact that the execution decreases marginally when the motor is
energized with biodiesel, noteworthy changes in the burning parameters seen if there
should arise an occurrence of biodiesel mixes are critical to note? Then again, lessening
in CO, HC and smoke is watched. Think about uncovers the impact of biodiesel on a
multicylinder diesel motor when contrasted with diesel and develops conclusions
regarding execution and emissions.
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Oil based goods utilization is expanding step by step as the quantity of vehicles on
street increments. Burning of hydrocarbon fuel expands its focus in the natural
contamination too. There is a need to tackle these twin issues fuel supply and natural
contamination. Nonrenewable fuel radiates more hydrocarbons, oxides of nitrogen,
sulfur, and carbon monoxides when contrasted with sustainable biofuels. Different option
energizes are considered as substitute fills for oil based commodities and endeavors were
made to dissect the appropriateness of the fuel and its exhibition. Inexhaustible energizes
have gotten more consideration as they diminish the natural contamination (by finishing
carbon cycle) and lessen the import of oil. Consequently, specialists and mainstream
researchers worldwide have concentrated on improvement of biodiesel and the
advancement of the procedures to meet the gauges and determinations required for the
fuel to be utilized economically. Critical research on the generation and use of biomass
vitality for fuel designs is being completed all around the globe. Alcohols, vegetable oils,
and their subordinates are the promising biomass hotspots for use in motors. Utilization
of biofuels, especially biodiesel gotten from vegetable oil, is increasing more significance
as of now as it doesn't require any motor equipment alteration without influencing the
motor execution, no sulfur discharges, and a lessening in ozone depleting substance
emanations. Biodiesel can be gotten from vegetable oils, creature fats, and green growth
materials. Dr. Rudolf Diesel, innovator of the diesel motor made the enthusiasm among
general society to utilize vegetable oil as diesel motor fuel, especially shelled nut oil.
Minimal effort oil based goods are utilized for diesel motors due to its plentiful
accessibility. Be that as it may, amid the vitality emergency period (1970s), vegetable oils
and alcohols were generally utilized as motor fuel. Due to the continually rising unrefined
petroleum costs and ecological worries, there has been a restored concentrate on
vegetable oils and their subordinates for use as motor fuel.
Vegetable oils can be changed into different, more valuable structures that are
appropriate for diesel motor application. These incorporate miniaturized scale emulsion,
pyrolysis, and transesterification. Pyrolysis of the vegetable oil brought about items with
low consistency, high cetane number, acknowledged measures of sulfur, water and
residue, and acknowledged copper consumption esteems. Be that as it may, these are
inadmissible as far as their fiery remains substance, carbon buildups, and pour focuses.
Miniaturized scale emulsion of vegetable oil brought down the consistency of the
vegetable oil however brought about sporadic injector needle staying, overwhelming
carbon stores, and fragmented burning. Among these different change philosophies, the
transesterification procedure has turned out to be business achievement.
Transesterification is a synthetic procedure of changing extensive, fanned triglyceride
atoms of the vegetable oils and fats into littler, straight chain particles, practically
comparable in size to the particles of the species introduce in diesel fuel. Numerous
nations began biodiesel generation ventures and biodiesel is mixed with diesel
economically according to their national approach. Motor execution, discharge,
continuance and metal segments wear examination, armada studies, and motor oil
impacts were directed by different car makers and oil organizations. In view of the
positive outcomes gotten by them, car makers expanded the guarantee of biodiesel
worked vehicles too. European Union has turned into the pioneer of biodiesel creation on
the planet. Biodiesel alludes to diesel identical, prepared fuel gotten from organic
sources, for example, vegetable oils. It can likewise be produced using creature fats. It is
the ester based oxygenated fuel gotten from organic sources. Synthetically, biodiesel is
characterized as mono alkyl esters of long-chain unsaturated fats of lipids. Methanol is
favored over ethanol in the transesterification procedure as it is more affordable, and
thinking of it as' polar and short chain atomic structure. Biodiesel utilized for mixing with
diesel ought to meet the ASTM D 6751 or specific nation's national fuel norms. Biodiesel
can be utilized as burning extender for lessening the motor fumes outflows. Key focal
points of biodiesel incorporate.
Biodiesel is an option fuel that can be utilized to work any ordinary, unmodified
diesel motor. It can be put away anyplace that diesel fuel is put away.
Biodiesel can be utilized alone or blended in any proportion with oil diesel fuel in
diesel motors.
The life cycle generation and utilization of biodiesel creates around 80% less
carbon dioxide discharges, and very nearly 100% less sulfur dioxide than diesel.
Burning of biodiesel alone gives more than 90% decrease altogether unburned
hydrocarbons and 75–90% lessening in sweet-smelling hydrocarbons. Biodiesel
additionally gives noteworthy decreases in particulates and carbon monoxide
contrasted with oil diesel fuel. Biodiesel gives a slight increment or reduction in
nitrogen oxides discharges relying upon motor family and testing methods.
Biodiesel has around 11% oxygen by weight and no sulfur. The utilization of
biodiesel can amplify the life of diesel motors since it is more greasing up than oil
diesel fuel, while fuel utilization, auto start, control yield, and motor torque are
moderately unaffected by biodiesel.
Biodiesel can be produced using locally created, sustainable oil seed products, for
example, soybeans, jatropha, pongamia, cottonseed, elastic seed, and mustard
seed.

Studies to be led when biodiesel utilized with the lower sulfur fuel will create any
outflow benefits in the most recent era of motors.
While vehicles that keep running on B20 and uproot some measure of oil, they are as yet
reliant on diesel fuel to work.
Biodiesel is fundamentally more costly than diesel fuel and henceforth government
impetuses are required to advance it.
Since there is less vitality in a gallon of biodiesel than in a gallon of oil diesel, the driving
scope of vehicles working on biodiesel mixes is less.
The oil with high free unsaturated fat (FFA) nourish stock oils are to be changed
over into biodiesel by two stage transesterification handle. The high FFA mahua oil was
changed over as biodiesel by utilizing two-stage prepare. The transesterification of mahua
oil with methanol and potassium hydroxide as the impetus revealed a yield of 98% at 60
o C. The biodiesel in this way created meet out the principles settled by two noteworthy
goliaths of benchmarks America and Europe. The execution and emanation qualities of
biodiesel and its mixes demonstrated a superior outcome contrasted and diesel. According
to the brake particular fuel utilization was viewed as the outcome was in bar with the
diesel in the meantime the emanation attributes were considered there was outstanding
reduction in CO, HC and smoke outflows.
The execution, ignition and emanation attributes of biodiesel and its mixes with
various proportions like B25, B50, B75 and B100 were subjected to different trial test
and the greater part of the reviews uncover that B25 and B50 are the most attractive mix
proportions which gave the diminished nursery gasses like CO, HC and Smoke (up to
8.2%, 8.9%, 5.4% individually) with an expanded (5%) BSFC and decreased BTE (up to
6%).
It was watched that the high pressure proportion and infusion weight decreased
the HC, CO and smoke extensively, however there was an expansion in NOx noted with
these blends. The biodiesel with legitimate added substance may lessen the start delay
and the additional oxygen prompts finish ignition and expands the aggregate warmth
discharge, however the NOx level expanded.
Comparative reviews with various oils like mahua, jatropha, neem, rapeseed,
squander cooking oil, pongamia, coconut, rice grain and the sunflower oils for the
execution, burning and emanation test in a four stroke diesel motor was directed and the
accompanying outcomes were accounted for. The expansion in brake particular fuel
utilization with diminished brake warm effectiveness and lessened CO emanation, HC
outflow, smoke discharge and expanded NOx are the outcome. The expanded BSFC and
the diminished BTE with expanded level of NOx is the impediment felt as of now in the
utilization of biodiesel as fuel in diesel motor. This issue can be killed by adding
appropriate added substances to the biodiesel mix. The blending of added substance
diminishes the BSFC and expands the BTE impressively and furthermore the NOx level
lessened to an outstanding worth. The higher consistency is the limitation confronted for
the utilization of the biodiesel in diesel motor. This issue was tended to by different
creators. The capacity term and temperature likewise impacts the consistency by
expanding the thickness of biodiesel nearly for all mix proportions. The consistency can
be diminished by preheating the biodiesel with the assistance of fumes gas temperature
and this can likewise enhance the execution and discharge qualities of biodiesel.
Another issue confronted while utilizing biodiesel is the warm and oxidation
flimsiness of biodiesel. This makes the biodiesel a weakened one and can't be put away
for a long stretch and high motor temperature operation likewise unrealistic. The
expansion of pyrogallol will enhance the warm too oxidation solidness of biodiesel.
From the above reviews it was anticipated that the biodiesel from the vegetable oil
encourage stock is a dependable and guaranteed substitute source which can be utilized
for the ecological manageability. In this review the biodiesel gotten from pongamia oil
was taken for the execution, burning and discharge testing with various mix proportion of
B25, B50, B75, and B100. The biodiesel was tried in a four stroke multi barrel diesel
motor and the outcomes were talked about.
CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE SURVEY
1) HC, CO, CO2 and NOx Emission Evaluation of a Diesel Engine Fueled with
Waste Frying Oil Methyl Ester.
Alireza Shirneshan
In this paper, tests were led on a 4-chamber coordinate infusion diesel motor utilizing
biodiesel as an option fuel and their mixes to research the outflow qualities of the motor
under four motor burdens at a motor speed of 1800 rev/min. A test was connected in
which a motor was energized with diesel and four distinct mixes of diesel/biodiesel (B20,
B40, B60 and B80) produced using waste searing oil and the outcomes were dissected.
The utilization of biodiesel brought about lower outflows of hydrocarbon (HC) and CO
and expanded discharges of CO2 and NOx. This review demonstrated that the fumes
outflows of diesel/biodiesel mixes were lower than those of the diesel energizes.
As an inexhaustible, economical and elective fuel for pressure start motors, biodiesel
rather than diesel has been progressively filled to study its consequences for motor
exhibitions and discharges in the current 10 years. In any case, these reviews have been
once in a while audited to support comprehension and promotion for biodiesel up until
this point. In this work, reports about biodiesel motor exhibitions and outflows,
distributed by profoundly evaluated diaries in logical files, were referred to especially
since 2000 year. From these reports, the impact of biodiesel on motor power, economy,
strength and outflows including directed and non-managed discharges, and the comparing
impact elements are studied and dissected in detail. The utilization of biodiesel prompts
the significant decrease in PM, HC and CO outflows going with the vague power
misfortune, the expansion in fuel utilization and the expansion in NOx emanation on
customary diesel motors with no or less alteration. What's more, it favors to decrease
carbon store and wear of the key motor parts. Subsequently, the mixes of biodiesel with
little substance set up of oil diesel can help in controlling air contamination and
facilitating the weight on rare assets without altogether relinquishing motor power and
economy. Be that as it may, many further looks into about improvement and alteration on
motor, low temperature exhibitions of motor, new instrumentation and procedure for
estimations, and so on. Ought to be performed when oil diesel is substituted totally by
biodiesel.
Numerous nations are utilizing and considering the expanded utilization of biodiesel
mixed energizes to moderate their development of petroleum derivative use for
transportation purposes. Prior to the utilization of biodiesel energizes increment, it is
important that we comprehend the impact of utilizing biodiesel mixes on vehicle
discharges, so we better comprehend what air quality effects to anticipate. Numerous past
audits of biodiesel consequences for discharges have consolidated the majority of the
outflows information accessible to build a solitary incentive for the impacts on toxin
emanations. This incorporates joining outflows information from both light-obligation
and overwhelming obligation diesel vehicles and motors, consolidating vehicle
information from suspension dynamometer and on-street discharges testing. In this
survey, we will investigate the consequences for vehicle emanations of changing from oil
diesel fuel to biodiesel mixed energizes for light-obligation and substantial obligation
vehicles, independently. We wo exclude motor emanations information in this
examination. For the substantial obligation vehicles, we will likewise isolate comes about
for on-street discharges testing from body dynamometer testing. The discharges of
controlled poisons will be assessed, including hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides
(NOx), carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PM), and also carbon dioxide
(CO2) outflows and efficiency. In these investigations, we have discovered some
measurably noteworthy contrasts in the impacts of biodiesel use on the discharges
between overwhelming obligation vehicles in view of dynamometer and on-street
outflows testing, and light-obligation vehicle dynamometer information. For vehicle
emanations from substantial obligation vehicle tried utilizing a dynamometer and on
street outflows strategies, the discharges of CO, CO2 and PM were observed not to be
essentially unique for B20, but rather the HC, NOx and efficiency results were altogether
extraordinary. The aftereffects of the substantial obligation and light-obligation
dynamometer emanations were found to not vary fundamentally for any poison, other
than PM outflows when B20 mixed energizes were utilized. At the point when the
consequences of the emanations studies were not essentially extraordinary, the outcomes
were consolidated to decide the impact of biodiesel use on vehicle outflows.
The objectives of this venture were to recognize contrasts in the synthesis of ignition
discharges between oil based diesel and biodiesel and to decide whether utilization of an
outflows meter would be an appropriate expansion to a future research facility explore.
The group accomplished these objectives through exploratory testing of burning
discharges of the two fills and in addition blends utilizing a pipe gas analyzer and a
current biodiesel perfect ignition framework. The group recognized clear patterns
between biodiesel fuel extents and fumes convergences of carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide, and nitrogen oxides, and approved the temperature reliance of outflow
organizations.
Presently, elective powers are being explored in detail for application in pressure start
(CI) motors bringing about energizing potential chances to expand vitality security and
decrease gas emanations. Biodiesel is one of the option energizes which is sustainable
and naturally neighborly and can be utilized as a part of diesel motors with next to zero
changes. The goal of this review is to research the impacts of biodiesel sorts and biodiesel
part on the outflow qualities of a CI motor. The trial work was completed on a four-
barrel, four-stroke, coordinate infusion (DI) and turbocharged diesel motor by utilizing
biodiesel produced using waste oil, rapeseed oil, corn oil and contrasting them with
ordinary diesel. The energizes utilized as a part of the examinations are B10, B20, B50,
B100 and slick diesel. The motor was worked over a scope of motor paces. In light of the
deliberate parameters, nitty gritty examinations were done on major controlled outflows,
for example, NOx, CO, CO2, and THC. It has been seen that the biodiesel sorts (sources)
don't bring about any critical contrasts in outflows. The outcomes additionally plainly
demonstrate that the motor running with biodiesel and mixes have higher NOx outflow
by up to 20%.,40% and 30% for CO, CO2 and THC emanations individually, when
contrasted with diesel fuel at different working conditions.

METHODOLOGY
The pongamia oil seeds are gathered from nearby merchants and dried for a
fortnight in daylight. For consistent and business creation reason other mechanical drying
strategies might be utilized. The dried seeds are peeled for getting the bit and the oil was
extricated by utilizing the mechanical expeller. The pongamia oil along these lines
removed was blended with hexane and mixed at 1500 rpm in a mechanical stirrer at 45oC
to 50°C and considered 45 minutes to settle down the polluting influences introduce in
the crude oil.
The diesel cost differs from rupees 50 to 65 over the most recent four years.
Contrast with diesel cost the cost of pongamia biodiesel is somewhat high. However, in
the event that the mass and constant creation is made and if the biodiesel is popularized
and the ranchers are urged to develop more feedstock of pongamia and other oil borne
trees the generation and other cost caused will be near that of diesel. While considering
the estimating of biodiesel alongside the cost it will be legitimized by considering the
natural advantages, business benefits, financial and land adjusts, sustenance, work
security, vitality security and supply to request proportion. What's more for capacity
reason the current offices can be used and consequently the usage of PME as substitute
fuel does not cause much trouble.
The biodiesel created from pretreated pongamia oil was additionally subjected to
the transesterification procedure. The operational parameters that impact the
transesterification are the measure of potassium hydroxide, molar proportion of liquor to
oil, response temperature, and response time. Ideal conditions by the exploratory
examinations were observed to be 6:1 molar proportion of liquor to oil, 1% impetus,
65°C response temperature and an hour response time.
The reactants inside the round base flagon are warmed at 60°C at blending
velocity of 1500 rpm. The items were kept in an isolating channel for the division of
biodiesel and glycerol. The lower layer which containing glycerol and different pollutions
while the upper layer was biodiesel, which also contains hints of impetus. Hints of the
impetus display in the biodiesel were expelled by washing with water. In the meantime, it
is essential to expel themethanol content in biodiesel to keep away from cleanser
arrangement before washing the biodiesel. For this the biodiesel was warmed and
afterward the biodiesel was blended with warm water and kept in isolating pipe for
couple of hours. The lower layer containing water with hints of impetus was expelled.
The biodiesel was additionally warmed to expel the dampness before it was stuffed for
the portrayal and testing.

Biodiesel determination guarantees that at thickness maximum utmost, fuel will stream
promptly amid frosty beginning. Higher consistency of fuel prompts poor atomization,
inadequate burning, and expands carbon stores. Besides, higher thickness fuel needs
higher pumping power moreover. Energizes with lower consistency spills past the
plunger through the freedom amongst plunger and barrel amid fuel pressure.
4.4.4 Density
Thickness is mass of the substances possessing unit volume at 15ºC. Thickness of
fuel is assessed according to ASTM D4052. Hydrometers are utilized to assess the
thickness of fluids. Biodiesel is marginally higher than customary diesel. Diesel motor
injectors typically work on a volume metering framework. On the off chance that the fuel
is of higher thickness, an extensive mass of fuel is infused and henceforth more power
and discharges.
Cetane number of fuel is a measure of the start execution of diesel fuel acquired
by contrasting it with the reference powers in an institutionalized motor test; that is,
agreeable fuel examine (CFR) cetane motor, according to ASTM D613 test strategy. The
higher cetane number in fuel is better in its start properties. The cetane number influences
motor parameters like burning, soundness, drivability, smoke, clamor, and discharges.
Cetane number of biodiesel is higher than that of diesel. Sufficient cetane number is
required for good motor execution. High cetane number guarantees great cool begin
properties and limits the development of white smoke. The cetane number of biodiesel
relies on upon the feedstock utilized for the biodiesel generation. Cetane number of
biodiesel reduction with an expansion in unsaturation (oleic and linolenic) and
increments with an expansion in chain length. Esters of soaked unsaturated fats, for
example, palmitic and stearic acids have higher cetane numbers.
Chilly channel stopping point (CFPP) is the temperatures at which a fuel will
cause a fuel channel to plug because of fuel segments that have started to solidify or gel.
CFPP of biodiesel is resolved according to EN 116 test technique. CFPP mirrors the
chilly climate execution of the fuel. At lower temperatures fuel won't stream
appropriately and influences the fuel pumps and fuel injectors. CFPP is less traditionalist
than the cloud point, and is considered by some to be the genuine sign of low temperature
operability.
Cloud point is the temperature at which a cloud or fog wax precious stones shows
up at the base of the test jostle when the oil is cooled under recommended conditions.
Pour point is the most reduced temperature at which the oil is seen to stream when cooled
and inspected under endorsed conditions. Biodiesel for the most part has higher cloud
point and pour point than diesel. In immersed unsaturated fats, the carbon is bound to two
hydrogen iotas by twofold securities. All the more twofold bonds in the biodiesel show
bring down cloud point.
4.4.9 Stability
Biodiesel ages more rapidly than diesel because of compound structure of methyl
esters display in biodiesel. Soaked methyl esters in biodiesel increment its cloud point
and cetane number and enhance its solidness. The unsaturated fats diminish cloud point
and cetane number and decrease its soundness too. Oxidation steadiness of biodiesel is
assessed by EN 14214 test technique. Rancimat mechanical assembly is utilized for
assessing the oxidation strength of biodiesel. Methyl esters are warmed at 110ºC under a
steady stream of air at the rate of 10 l/h. The vapors discharged amid the oxidation
procedure, together with the air, are passed into the jug containing 60 ml of water and
terminal. At the point when the conductivity starts to increment quickly, it demonstrates
acceptance period. This quickened increment is caused by separation of unpredictable
carboxylic acids delivered amid the oxidation procedure and assimilated in the water.
Rancimat enlistment time of 6 hours is characterized for biodiesel tests according to
biodiesel detail. A large portion of the biodiesel won't meet this particular unless
appropriate cell reinforcements are included at reasonable treat rate. Soundness of
biodiesel is impacted by elements, for example, nearness of air, warmth, hints of metal,
peroxides, light, and number of twofold bonds. Oxidation soundness of biodiesel will
diminish with the expansion of polyunsaturated methyl esters. Oxidation strength of
biodiesel relies on the feedstock utilized as a part of the generation of biodiesel.
Vegetable oils, for example, sunflower or soybean (rich in linoleic and linolenic acids)
have poor oxidation steadiness. Iodine number (ASTM D1520 or EN 14111 test strategy)
demonstrates the propensity of fuel to be temperamental. Iodine number alludes to the
sum required to change over unsaturated oil into immersed oil. It doesn't allude to the
measure of iodine in the oil however the nearness of unsaturated fats in the fuel. It shows
the propensity of fuel to be flimsy. Unsaturated fats are inclined to oxidation.
4.4.11 Sulfur
The biodiesel created by transesterification strategy was utilized for doing the test
examination for execution and emanation qualities like BSFC, BTE, CO, CO2, HC, NOx
discharge for PME. For this biodiesel mixes of B25 (25% biodiesel, 75% diesel), B50
(half biodiesel, half diesel), B75 (75% biodiesel, 25% diesel), B100 (100% biodiesel,
00% diesel) or B100 (immaculate biodiesel) were taken. The test was led for BD first in
Ashok Leyland Hino Engine, multi barrel, four stroke, coordinate infusion diesel motor
and thus for alternate mixes. The detail of the motor is given in table 3.
To lead the test Hino Engine multi barrel, four stroke, and coordinate infusion
diesel motor with swirl current dynamometer for acquiring distinctive load condition was
utilized. The photographic and format chart perspective of the motor with all the
subordinate plan is demonstrated figure 1 and figure 2 separately. The Hino Engine was
made as test motor in light of the fact that the required adjustment if any should be
possible effortlessly. The motor is most broadly utilized for farming and power era units.
To gauge the fumes gasses the AVL 444-DI gas analyzer was utilized and for measuring
the smoke AVL 437C smoke meter was utilized. By stacking the motor with swirl current
dynamometer the fuel utilization is measured with burette. The motor was permitted to
keep running for 20 minutes with no heap for warm up and to achieve the relentless
running condition and the diverse readings were taken by consistent speed of 1500 rpm.
Fig. No…
The vortex current dynamometer is given to test the engine at different stacking
conditions. A strain gage sort stack cell put underneath the dynamometer measures the
pile. The signs from the stack cell are interfaced with simple to computerized converter to
give Torque in N-m. The dynamometer is stacked by the stacking unit sorted out in the
control board.
A water cooled piezoelectric transducer set on the chamber head surface measures
the barrel dynamic weight and a piezoelectric transducer put on the fuel line close to the
injector measures the fuel mixture weight.
Each one of the sensors which sense the temperature of particular zones are joined with
the control board, which gives the mechanized scrutinizing of the diverse temperatures.
4. Surge Correction.
Switch on the mains of the control board and set the supply voltage from servo
stabilizer to 220 volts.
The rule door valve is opened, the pump is exchanged ON and the water stream to
the motor chamber coat (80 ml/sec), calorimeter (80 ml/sec), dynamometer and
sensors are arranged.
The motor has a pressure proportion of 16.6 and a typical speed of 1500 rpm
controlled by the representative. An infusion weight of 200 bar is used for the best
execution as demonstrated by the producer. The motor is first continue running with
Diesel at stacking conditions, for instance, 2, 3.4 and 5 kgs. Between two load trials the
motor allowed to wind up stable by running it for 3 minutes before taking the readings.
At each stacking condition execution parameters specifically speed, fumes gas
temperature, brake control, top weight are measured under continuing state conditions.
The tests are rehashed for various blends of unadulterated diesel and mixes of Pongamia
oil. With the above trial comes about, the parameters, for instance, total fuel use, brake
particular fuel utilization, brake mean compelling weight; brake particular vitality
utilization and brake warm effectiveness are computed. Finally, diagrams are plotted for
brake particular fuel utilization, brake warm productivity as for stacking conditions for
immaculate diesel and mixes of Pongamia oil and its mixes. From these plots, execution
qualities of the motor chose.
The aggregate rate of instability of this test is ascertained by utilizing the equation
the square foundation of the expansion of the squares of vulnerabilities of TFC, BP,
BSFC, BTE, CO, CO2, HC, NOx, Smoke number, EGT, weight get.
The combined rate of instabilities caused by the different instruments and the
testing techniques and methodology followed in this trial work is equivalent to ±2.8%. It
doesn't influence the exploratory outcome, as it were, and henceforth the outcomes got
are solid and steady.

Figure: No… Variation of BSFC with speed for different blends of PME.
The variation of specific fuel consumption with speed in rpm for different blend ratios
(diesel, B25, B50, B75 and B100) of biodiesel is given in figure. The BSFC is depending
upon the specific gravity, viscosity and calorific value of fuel used. The experimental
result was plotted in graph and from the graph it was observed that the BSFC decreases
with increase in engine speed and vice versa for all blend ratios. This may be because of
the increased combustion chamber temperature at high speed might be helpful for
reducing ignition delay and assist for complete combustion and for lower speed rich fuel
air mixture supplied to the engine. For all engine speed and all blend ratio of PME with
diesel gives an increased BSFC. The increase in BSFC is because of the less heating
value of the PME as that of diesel. The increase in BSFC takes place with increasing
biodiesel content in the blend ratio and the biodiesel with high density and lower heat
content.
By comparing the B25 biodiesel blend with that of diesel BSFC is higher. But the
BSFC for B100 at full speed condition is higher than diesel this is due to the fact that
pongamia oil having less calorific value and high viscosity. The BSFC for B25 and B50
are closer to diesel hence these blend ratios preferred by considering BSFC for the better
performance with PME as fuel. The blend ratios of B25 and B50 are assisting oxidation
of diesel because of the inherent oxygen content and hence get a closer BSFC value to
diesel, but in the higher blend ratios the low calorific value of PME has dominating
characteristics than the oxygen content and hence increased BSFC. In order to produce
the same power output more biodiesel is required since the fuel is supplied to the engine
by volume basis.

Figure no. … shows that the brake thermal efficiency for various blends of
biodiesel and diesel. The BTE decreases with the increase in percentage of biodiesel
content in the blends. The maximum speed condition with B25 blends gives a closer
value of BTE with diesel. It is seen that the brake thermal efficiency increases with
increasing speed for all the fuel operations. This is due to reduction in heat loss at higher
load and increase in brake power with the increase in load. At minimum engine speed the
biodiesel has showed lesser BTE with increase in blend ratios because of the high
viscosity biodiesel causes an inferior air fuel mixture by forming larger fuel droplets
during atomization.
The higher viscosity combined with the poor volatility behavior of biodiesel
caused by intermolecular friction produces a non-homogeneous mixture during the
atomization and hence incomplete combustion and the decrease in brake thermal
efficiency are the result for high blend ratio of biodiesel. The lesser heat content of PME
and the unsaturated condition of pongamia is another reason for giving a reduced thermal
efficiency compare to diesel. The notable variation in decrease of BTE with increased
blend ratio was observed due to this reason. From this it was observed that the percentage
of unsaturation affects the BSFC to a significant amount and this is the reason for
different oil sources showing a variation in engine operation.

Figure: variation of Carbon monoxide with speed for different blends of PME.
The variations of CO emission with respect to speed for diesel and biodiesel blends are
shown in figure. There was a decrease in CO emission level noted with B25 blend
because the biodiesel itself oxygenated fuel which helps for complete combustion. When
speed increase the CO emission level also getting increased, because of the variation in
air fuel ratio for different operating condition of the engine. The possible reduction in
CO emission is because of the oxygenated biodiesel blend further promoting the
oxidation of CO. The all blend ratio of biodiesel shows an overall reduction level in CO
emission in compare to diesel. The CO emission was measured by AVL 444 Di-Gas
analyzer which has an accuracy of CO measurement.

Figure: variation of Hydrocarbon with speed for different blends of PME
The HC emission variation with respect to speed is depicted in the figure. It clearly
indicates that the HC emission level decrease with the increase in blend ratio of biodiesel.
For diesel as the speed increases the HC emission increases because of the shortage of
oxygen. But the biodiesel showed a considerable reduction in HC emission with increase
in blend ratio because of the oxygenated nature. A better combustion is possible for PME
fuelled blends because of the high cetane number of PME which is also oxygenated one.
The HC emission for B25 blend is decreasedcompared to that of diesel. The HC emission
was measured by AVL 444 DI-Gas analyzer which has accuracy in HC measurement.

Figure: variation of Oxygen with speed for different blends of PME
The variation of oxygen with speed for different blends of biodiesel and neat diesel are
shown in figure at full load. From the graph it is observed that the level of oxygen
decreases with the increase of maximum speed. At maximum speed condition the both
biodiesel blends of B25 and B50 have lower oxygen level due to complete combustion of
the biodiesel blends. At minimum speed condition oxygen level of both the biodiesel
blends B25 is higher than the diesel fuel.The Oxygen emission was measured by
AVL 444 DI-Gas analyzer which has accuracy in Oxygen measurement.
NOX EMISSIONS
From the figure no…. the formation of oxides of nitrogen for different blends of
PME with various speed conditions is observed. The NOx emission is possible with the
availability of plenty of oxygen with high temperature with the required reaction time.
Since biodiesel are oxygenated one and the blend ratio getting increased means the NOx
level also getting increased. The increase in NOx level with increase in speed has been
observed. The increase in speed causes increase in gas temperature by burning more fuel
and ultimately there was an increase in NOx level was noted. This is in addition to
oxygen content the spray characteristics also one of the reason for NOx formation. The
B25 blend having a NOx level closer to diesel for all load conditions. The emission was
measured by AVL 444DI gas analyzer which has an accuracy of ppm in NOx
measurement.
CYLINDER PRESSURE
Figure: No…. variation of Cylinder pressure with Crank angle for different blends of
PME
The cylinder pressures are the most important phenomena to know about the
combustion characteristics of the fuel and are represented in figure. The In cylinder
pressure variation with crank angles for various blends of B25, B50, B75, and B100
blends and that of diesel for various operating engine speed conditions are shown in
figure. From the figure it was obvious that the pressure lines were similar for all blend
ratios. The B25 blend gave higher peak pressure due to shorter ignition delay. This
indicates the optimum characteristics of mixing of fuel for complete combustion. The
inherent oxygen in biodiesel supports for complete combustion while the lower viscosity
of diesel helps for a homogeneous mixing. For all speed conditions the ignition starts
earlier for higher blend ratios but later for the lower blend ratios. The variation in
ignition delay was because of the injection parameters are set same for all blend ratios.
The B25 mixture shows peak pressure because of the shorter ignition delay and the rapid
combustion because of the inherent availability of oxygen and reduced viscosity because
of the low volume of mixing of the biodiesel with the low viscosity diesel.
The rate of pressure rise is considered to be important because it is the reason for
knocking, engine noise, smooth operation of engine and it decides the engine life.
HEAT RELEASE RATE
Figure: variation of Heat Release Rate with Crank angle for different blends of PME.
The heat release is the description of the burning behavior of fuel in engine. The
heat release influences the high peak pressure in cylinder. The heat release rate for the
blend ratios of diesel, B25, B50, B75, and B100 are shown in figure. A negative value of
heat release was noted in the initial stage of combustion because of the initiation of
vaporization is taking place at the time of the ignition delay, but the value become
positive after combustion was started. There was a delay in start of combustion because
of the ignition delay caused by the PME. The B25 blend gave a high heat release and the
higher blend ratios gave a less heat release due to slow heat release and lower maximum
pressure.
Above graph represent for pongamia and its blends with diesel.The neat diesel
(B0) gives maximum cylinder pressure as compared to all other blends. This may be due
to lower viscosity and higher calorific value as compared to all other blends. The
percentage increase of calorific value for B0 is 2.32% as compared with B25 of
pongamia blend with diesel.
CHAPTER 6
CONCLUSIONS
The test result demonstrates the execution and emanation qualities of biodiesel
mixes of PME and diesel and furthermore gives the correlation with that of the base
diesel. From the exploratory outcome, the biodiesel if utilized as fuel substitutes in diesel
motor it will secure the earth by methods for lower discharge contrasted with the diesel.
The BSFC expanded by 4.2% in the meantime there was abatement in BTE of
2.4% noted for B25 mix of PME with that of diesel. As to nursery gasses of CO, HC and
NOx there is diminishment 8.9%, 8.2% and a nearer esteem are noted individually. B25
gives more smoke level contrast with that of diesel. By an aggregate conclusion the PME
biodiesel can be actualized in the current motor as substitute fuel for transport, control
and rural unit and rough terrain vehicles with no change. On the off chance that done as
such it not just shields the earth and furthermore ensures the human wellbeing and
produces the work and shields the developing group from land relocation.
Carbon dioxide is one of the real nursery gasses. In spite of the fact that the
consuming of biodiesel produces carbon dioxide discharges like those from customary
petroleum derivatives, the plant feedstock utilized as a part of the generation retains
carbon dioxide from the climate when it develops. Plants retain carbon dioxide through a
procedure known as photosynthesis which enables it to store vitality from daylight as
sugars and starches. After the biomass is changed over into biodiesel and consumed as
fuel the vitality and carbon is discharged once more. Some of that vitality can be utilized
to control a motor while the carbon dioxide is discharged once more into the climate.
Pollution
Biodiesel is the main option fuel to have effectively finished the Health Effects
Testing prerequisites (Tier I and Tier II) of the Clean Air Act (1990).
Carbonyl Emissions
While considering the discharges from non-renewable energy source and biofuel
utilize, look into normally concentrates on significant poisons, for example,
hydrocarbons. It is by and large perceived that utilizing biodiesel set up of diesel results
in a generous decrease in managed gas discharges, however there has been an absence of
data in research writing about the non-directed mixes which additionally assume a part in
air contamination. One review concentrated on the emanations of non-criteria carbonyl
mixes from the consuming of immaculate diesel and biodiesel mixes in overwhelming
obligation diesel motors. The outcomes found that carbonyl emanations of formaldehyde,
acetaldehyde, acrolein, CH3)2CO, propionaldehyde and butyraldehyde, were higher in
biodiesel blends than outflows from unadulterated diesel. Biodiesel utilize brings about
higher carbonyl discharges yet bring down aggregate hydrocarbon emanations, which
might be better as an option fuel source. Different reviews have been done which strife
with these outcomes, yet examinations are hard to make because of different components
that vary between studies, (for example, sorts of fuel and motors utilized). In a paper
which looked at 12 inquire about articles on carbonyl emanations from biodiesel fuel
utilize, it found that 8 of the papers announced expanded carbonyl compound outflows
while 4 demonstrated the inverse. This is confirmation that there is still much research
required on these mixes.
• The sticky nature of biodiesel may diminish the motor life and execution.
• There is just a constrained solid test outcome accessible for the execution, burning
and discharge test for a wide range of motors like single barrel and multi chamber
motors for perseverance testing by utilizing biodiesel as substitute fuel.
Keeping in view the significance of creating less expensive and cleaner types of
vitality, the Ministry of Environment and Forest set up an incorporated association to
manage every related viewpoint. Bio-diesel shapes one of the key push zones in future
vitality arranging in the Country and they had taken up Pongamia and Jatropha manor
significantly and had officially planted more than 20 million (2 crore) saplings
everywhere throughout the nation. Since the endeavors hitherto have been incoherent,
Government might want to complete further exercises in an arranged, orderly and
composed way. It can be planted along whole crosswise over India, both sides of which
can be productively utilized for editing. Government might want to include a few
specialists in these ventures and furthermore distinguish associations/NGOs/agriculturist
groups/towns who could complete different exercises. Both vast and little plants will have
issues for at any rate next couple of years, for acquisition crude material.
• In India, palatable vegetable oils are hard to come by and India needs to import
45% of aggregate prerequisites (600,000 tons) every year, to overcome any issues.
Utilized cooking oil is for all intents and purposes not accessible, as it is utilized
till the end because of lack. In many created nations vegetable oils (Rapeseed,
Soy, Palm, Corn, and Animal Tallow) are in abundance of their nearby
prerequisites of eatable oils. They need to arrange off these oils and changing over
these to Biodiesel as fuel is best choice for them for transfer.
• India has best atmosphere and precipitation for developing Jatropha and Cheap
work for Harvesting. Most created nations do not have these two.
