ALCOHOL AS A DIESEL FUEL - AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF ETHANOL IN AN IDI DIESEL ENGINE WITH DUAL INJECTION

The experimental results of ethanol- diesel fuel dual injection method using an idi diesel engine are summarized as follows: (1) the performance and emission characteristics in an ethanol- diesel engine are the same as those of conventional diesel engines as up to 50 per cent substitution of ethanol for diesel fuel and 75 per cent can be used but the emissions of unburned fuel increase. (2) the ex…
