Abstract
The purpose of this research work is to build a multiple linear regression
model for the characteristics of multicylinder diesel engine using
multicomponent blends (diesel- pungamia methyl ester-ethanol) as fuel. Nine
blends were tested by varying diesel (100 to 10% by Vol.), biodiesel (80 to
10% by vol.) and keeping ethanol as 10% constant. The brake thermal
efficiency, smoke, oxides of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, maximum cylinder
pressure, angle of maximum pressure, angle of 5% and 90% mass burning were
predicted based on load, speed, diesel and biodiesel percentage. To validate
this regression model another multi component fuel comprising diesel-palm
methyl ester-ethanol was used in same engine. Statistical analysis was
carried out between predicted and experimental data for both fuel. The
performance, emission and combustion characteristics of multi cylinder diesel
engine using similar fuel blends can be predicted without any expenses for
experimentation.
