Abstract

Gasoline–ethanol–methanol (GEM) blends have been considered to replace pure gasoline as spark ignition engine fuel. Their physical and chemical properties and performance and emission measurements from real engines have been reported previously. However, a fundamental study that can explain the unique results of GEM compared with those of pure gasoline is lacking. This study aims to compare the laminar burning velocity of GEM blends at different mixtures, equivalence ratios, temperatures, and pressures with that of pure gasoline. A laminar flame propagation model and reaction mechanisms from the literature were were for a numerical simulation. In this study, the chemical components of real gasoline are simplified using a binary surrogate mixture. Results show that the laminar burning velocity of the GEM increased with the increase in temperature, ethanol, and methanol concentration, and it decreased with the increase in pressure. Sensitive reactions to laminar burning velocity are presented through a sensitivity analysis.

Abstract

Several types of alternative fuels have been developed to replace fossil fuels. Alcohols, such as ethanol and methanol, can be blended with gasoline for spark ignition (SI) engines. High octane number and oxygen content in alcohol can increase combustion efficiency. Therefore, our current research investigates the effect of high concentrations of ethanol and methanol mixed in 90 RON gasoline. The mixture was implemented in a 150 cc single-cylinder four-stroke spark ignition (SI) engine without any modifications. Engine testing was carried out with wide-open throttle (WOT) and different engine speeds from 4000 to 10000 rpm. Torque, power, and Air Fuel Ratio (AFR) were measured during experiments on a chassis dynamometer. Our test results found that the higher the methanol fraction in the mixture, the lower the torque generated. To improve engine performance, further research is needed on modified engines so that optimal conditions can be identified.

Abstract

Diesel engines are known as high efficiency engines and are used in public transportation and agricultural sector. The exhaust gas produced by diesel engines is dangerous for human health. Ultra Fine Bubble (UFB) technology which is currently being developed is an emission reduction alternative that can enrich oxygen in fuel and has the potential to reduce emissions. This research was carried out to apply UFB technology to a variety of fuels and compare the emission results. This research method is data collection based on experimental tests. The types of fuel used in this research are biodiesel and biodiesel-diesel mixture. The research procedure starts from instrument preparation, fuel inflation which produces UFB fuel, fuel characteristics, instrument performance testing and data processing. The characteristic testing method follows the American Standard Testing and Materials (ASTM) and performance testing follows the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard. The research results show that fuel treated with ultra-fine bubbles can reduce exhaust emissions compared to fuel without UFB. CO content decreased by 608 parts per million (ppm) in the biodiesel-diesel blend and 306 ppm in biodiesel with UFB. The exhaust gas temperature becomes stable when the fuel contains bubbles and reduces NO and NOx content in emissions. Keywords: Biodiesel, Diesel engine, Fuel, Ultra fine bubble

Abstract

Improving the quality of B-35 biodiesel fuel is crucial, especially in distillation and flash point parameters that affect performance and safety. The objective of this study was to analyze the effect of oxygen ultrafine bubble application on the fuel characteristics of B-35 including cetane number, viscosity, density, flash point, distillation, and cloud point. Tests were conducted according to ASTM standards: D86 (distillation), D93A (flash point), D613 (cetane number), D445 (viscosity), D4052 (density), and D5773 (cloud point). The treatment was performed by injecting oxygen ultrafine bubble at a rate of 1, 3, and 5 l/min into 1.5 liters of fuel for 10–60 minutes. The results showed the highest distillation temperature of 339.7 °C at 1 l/min and 10 minutes, while the lowest temperature of 330.9 °C was achieved at 5 L/min and 60 minutes (control: 341.6 °C). The highest flash point of 72 °C occurred in the low oxygen injection rate and short duration, while the lowest was 64.5 °C in the high rate and long duration. The treatment increased cetane number from 58.6 to 60.8. The decrease in viscosity and density was insignificant but remained within standard limits. The cloud point decreased from 7.1 °C to 5 °C. UFB oxygen addition shows significant potential in improving the quality and combustion efficiency of B-35 fuel
