Abstract

Globally, the demand for fuels is ever-increasing and so is the demand for fuel additives. A fuel additive is a substance added in small quantities to increase the performance of the engine, decrease fuel consumption and reduce emission. The fuel additives have no specific set of raw materials or ingredients. Every fuel additive is different from the other in many ways of raw materials and ingredients to produce these additives. In many cases, fuel additives have made by chemical materials as additives for a gasoline engine. However, the optimal parameters for the reduction of fuel consumption are not clear. Accordingly, the present study performs a mixing additive material in the form of clove oil with pure gasoline fuel with a percentage of 1%, 0,6% and 0,3% from a total volume of gasoline to be tested. Then the mixing of the additive and gasoline is tested into the gasoline engine by varying the load using 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 Watt power with a fixed engine rotation of 2500 rpm. The results show that the reduction of fuel consumption respectively. Results showed that the addition of 1%, 0.6% and 0.3% clove oil into a 90 octane gasoline reduced fuel consumption by 10.6%, 18.2% and 15.4% respectively. Maximum reduction of fuel consumption was 28.6% at 800 W electrical load with 0.6% of clove oil additive.

Abstract

The increase in fuel prices makes the use of essential oils as a natural bio-additive in diesel engines much in demand. This is because essential oils are believed to have good content to improve engine performance and reduce fuel consumption. In this research, essential oils used are citronella oil because they contain carboxylic compounds (-COOH) and clove oil which has the advantage to prevent corrosion. The aim is to improve engine performance and reduce fuel consumption can also prevent corrosion. This research was conducted by mixing citronella oil and clove oil with diesel fuel with a percentage of 1%, 0.5%, and 0.1% of the total volume. The diesel engine is operated with a loading variation of 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800, and 2000 W at a constant engine speed of 1500 rpm. The variables measured and calculated in this experiment are power, torque, Brake Mean Effective Pressure (BMEP), Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC). The results showed that the addition of citronella oil and clove oil to diesel fuel with a percentage of 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1% significantly reduced fuel consumption by 14.6%, 12.9%, and 18.3%, respectively. The maximum fuel reduction from mixed oils is only 0.086 liters/hour at 1000W loads with 1% bio-additives content.

Abstract

The consumption of diesel fuel in Indonesia is increasing every year, one way to overcome this problem is to use natural bioaditive in the form of essential oils found in Indonesia. Essential oils used in this study are fragrant lemongrass because fragrant lemongrass contains carboxylic compounds (-COOH) [1,2,3]. With the aim of improving engine performance and reducing fuel consumption. This research was conducted by mixing fragrant citronella oil with diesel oil with a percentage of 1%, 0.5% and 0.1% of the total volume. Diesel engines are operated with variations in loading 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600, 1800 and 2000 W at a constant engine speed of 1500 rpm. The variables measured and calculated in this experiment are power, torque, Break Mean Effective Pressure (BMEP), Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC). The results showed that adding citronella oil to diesel fuel with a percentage of 1%, 0.5% and 0.1% significantly reduced fuel consumption by 15.5%, 3.6% and 2.6% respectively. The maximum reduction in fuel consumption reaches 0.055 liters / hour at 200W loading with a bioaditive level of 0.1%. The next study planned is to mix clove oil and citronella oil as bioaditive so that it is expected to reduce fuel consumption and engine corrosion.
