摘要
Major portion of today’s energy demand in the world is being satisfied with fossil fuels. On the record of confronting the energy crisis, bio fuels have been utilized as a promising source of fuel for IC Engines. This research work is to prove that with necessary modifications in Compression Ignition (CI) engine, the efficiency can be improved and it can be made equivalent or still better than mineral diesels. An experimental investigation was made to evaluate the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine using different blends of pumpkin seed oil with cerium oxide and nano particle as additive in diesel. Pumpkin seed oil was blended with diesel in proportions of 10%, 20%, and 30% by volume. Performance and emission parameters were studied under different loading conditions in CI engines. © 2019.
