Abstract | This paper investigates spray and engine performance of an acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) mixture blended with diesel fuel in a single-cylinder direct injection (DI) diesel engine. Spray images were evaluated using a high-speed camera under 300 bar injection pressure. Engine performance such as brake power (BP), brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and in-cylinder pressure were measured. Exhaust gas emissions such as oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) were also assessed. The test was carried out at three engine speeds (1400, 2000 and 2600 rpm) at full load. The experiment results showed that: liquid penetration of ABE-diesel is longer than that of diesel. BP of ABE-diesel blends was comparable with pure diesel at 2600 rpm, while the peak in-cylinder pressure was higher compared to diesel at 2000 rpm. UHC and CO emissions were significantly reduced as a result of the addition of ABE to the neat diesel, while NOx emissions were slightly increased. |
