摘要: Abstract Alcohols are increasingly used as fuels for spark ignition engines. While ethanol is most commonly used, long chain alcohols such butanol feature several advantages like increased heating value and reduced corrosive action. This study investigated the effect of fueling a port injection engine with iso-butanol, compared to gasoline operation. Performance levels were maintained within same limits fossil fuel without modifications any component. An additional electronic module was increasing flow by extending time. Fuel conversion efficiency decreased when fueled iso-butanol up 9% at full load 11% part load, calculated relative values. Incomplete evaporation identified factor likely cause drop in efficiency.
