Performance of cycle Diesel engine in dynamometer using diesel/biodiesel mixtures

摘要: Given the prediction of scarcity oil, ethyl ester (biodiesel) has presented as an excellent alternative fuel option for cycle diesel engine. The characteristics biodiesel are similar in terms viscosity and calorific power, being able to be used without adaptations engines. For accomplishment this work it was a engine, direct injection with four cylinders, adaptations. engine connected dynamometer acquisition systems auxiliary data. performances torque, power specific consumption following mixtures diesel/soy had been evaluated: B2, B5, B10, B20, B50, B75 B100. best registered performance given B20 mixture.
