Experiments has been carried out to estimate the performance, emission and combustion characteristics of a single cylinder; four stroke variable
compression ratio
multi fuel engine fuelled with waste cooking oil
methyl ester
and its blends with standard diesel. Tests has been conducted using the fuel blends of 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% biodiesel with standard diesel, with an engine speed of 1500 rpm, fixed
compression ratio
21 and at different loading conditions. The performance parameters elucidated includes brake thermal efficiency, specific fuel consumption, brake power, indicated mean effective pressure, mechanical efficiency and exhaust gas temperature. The exhaust gas emission is found to contain carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon,
nitrogen
oxides and carbon dioxide. The results of the experiment has been compared and analyzed with standard diesel and it confirms considerable improvement in the performance parameters as well as exhaust emissions. The blends when used as fuel results in the reduction of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon,
carbon dioxide
at the expense of
nitrogen
oxides emissions. It has found that the combustion characteristics of waste cooking oil
methyl ester
and its diesel blends closely followed those of standard diesel.
