ABSTRACT:

The significance of this present investigation undertakes the feasibility study of a new combination of bio-fuels. For this rationale; the diesel engine operated with blends of Jatropha biodiesel, karanja biodiesel with a view to completely eliminate dependency on fossil fuel. Jatropha biodiesel (methyl ester) andkaranja biodiesel is a low and high viscosity fuels combination with comparable heating values to that of diesel; this makes conducive for its use in a diesel engine. Extensive experimental work is carried out on a Kirloskar make the single cylinder, natural aspired diesel engine to examine combustion performance and emission characteristics using Jatropha methyl ester with karanja methyl ester blends (dual fuel blends. Dual fuel blends are found to be the best substitute to conventional diesel fuel in all aspects such as performance and emissions. Further, BT 50 resulted at full load condition, reduction of 2.9%, 4.72%, 4.56%, 42.5% and 29.16% in the brake thermal efficiency, NOx, HC, CO and smoke respectively while CO2 emissions increase 10.7%.
