Abstract
In this study, engine performance and emissions effects of ZnFe2O4 and ZnCO3
nanoparticle additives have been investigated in a Diesel engine. The
experiments have been carried out at 600 rpm and different loads (250-380
Nm) in a 11670 cc heavy-duty Diesel engine. Mixtures of additives have been
applied to diesel fuel as 100 ppm. Brake thermal efficiency, cylinder
pressure, and emission values have been tested for all investigated fuel
mixtures. The maximum thermal efficiency values of D-ZnCO3-100 and
D-ZnFe2O4-50 are higher than diesel fuel. Also, CO emission values of
D-ZnCO3-100 and D-ZnFe2O4-50 are obtained as less than diesel fuel.
