<![CDATA[To minimise diesel exhaust emissions, a few methods are commonly used. Engine modifications, combustion optimisation, and exhaust system treatment components are among them. Fuel additives, such as zinc oxide, titanium oxide, aluminium oxide, and cerium oxide, are amongst the most effective methods to increase performance and reduce emissions. Even while positive performance and emission reduction outcomes have been demonstrated, there are worries concerning health toxicity effects. Carbon nanoparticles have been accepted as a fuel additive since they pose little risk to human health. A few studies have been undertaken to investigate the consequences of employing graphene nanoplatelets as fuel additives, thanks to advancements in graphene research. The findings of the study seemed encouraging. However, despite detecting the additive effects of graphene on performance, no more study has been undertaken to forecast the effects on engine performance. The objective of this study was to predict the effects of graphene nanoplatelets as an additive for diesel engines. The performance parameters of the trial were torque, power, BSFC, and BTE. Speed, load, and blend concentration are all considered in this model. Response surface methods and contour plotting with Minitab software were used to generate the prediction model. The results show that the prediction model is within 10% of the experimental data.]]>
