Effect of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Blended Concentration on Performance, Combustion and Emission Characteristics of CRDI Diesel Engine running on Mahua Methyl Ester Biodiesel - Vol, 103(2), April - Kolkatta Springer 2022 - 167–180p

paper deals with the study on the effects of iron oxide nanoparticle (Fe2O3) additives when added to Mahua methyl ester (MME) blend on the emission, combustion, and performance characteristics of a four-stroke, single-cylinder, common rail direct injection diesel engine working at a fixed speed (1500 rpm) and varying operating scenarios. Doping is done in various proportions to the iron oxide nanoparticles with the help of a homogenizer and ultrasonicator where the cationic surfactant used is CTAB (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide). The fuels used for the experimental study are denoted as given (MME20 + Fe2O340, MME20 + Fe2O380 and MME20 + Fe2O3120). The experimental study revealed that while using the nanoparticle additives blended biodiesel (i.e., MME20 + IONP80) the number of harmful pollutants like smoke (5.38%), HC (6.39%), carbon monoxide (10.24%) and NOx, etc. have reduced to a considerable extent and there was a commendable improvement in the BTE by 8.8%. So, we can summarize that when biodiesel and nano additives are blended the combustion and performance of the engine was improved considerably and pollutant emissions were decreased.
