Performance And Emission Analysis Test On DI- Diesel Engine Fueled With Biodiesel And Barium Oxide Nanoparticles Blended

Abstract

This project aims at a comparative study on performance, emission and combustion of Barium Oxide
nanoparticles when blended with Biodiesel in single cylinder, direct injection water cooled direct compression
ignition Engine. Because of modernizations and increase in number of automobiles worldwide, the consumption
of diesel has massively increased. As petroleum is non-renewable major source of energy and its reserves are
scare now a days, there is a need for research in finding alternative fuels for automobiles. And also Bio diesels
are renewable, nontoxic and eco-friendly fuels that can play an important role in automobile industries. And
This paper deals with the transesterification of custard apple seed oil by means of methanol in presence
potassium hydroxide catalyst at less than 65°C. The viscosity of biodiesel produced from custard apple seed oil
is nearer to that of the commercially available diesel. The custard apple seed oil is characterized by GC ( Gas
chromatography) analysis and the important properties of biodiesel such as density, flash point,cloud
point,carbon residue are found out and compared with that of ASTM – biodiesel standards and commercially
available diesel. The study encourages the production of biodiesel from Custard apple seed (Annonasquasoma)
oil and value additionof custard apple fruit. By increasing performance of engine , control the emissions and
also to surplus the soot formation.
