Experimental study on the combustion performance of a stationary CIDI engine fueled with 1-heptanol-diesel mixtures

Mohamed Nour et al.

Summary: This study investigated the combustion characteristics of 1-heptanol/diesel blends in compression ignition direct injection (CIDI) engines. The findings showed that the 1-heptanol/diesel blends are more likely to burn during the premixed combustion phase and release more heat compared to diesel. The engine performance improved for the blends at certain loads, but slightly deteriorated at full load. The blends also reduced soot and NOx emissions.

Experimental evaluation of the performance and emissions of a direct-injection compression-ignition engine fueled with n-hexanol-diesel blends

Mohamed Nour et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of substituting commercial diesel fuel with n-hexanol in DICI engines on combustion, performance, and emission characteristics. Results showed that n-hexanol addition to diesel improved ignition delay, combustion mode, and reduced emissions. However, the brake thermal efficiency for n-hexanol-diesel blends was slightly lower compared to commercial diesel, with higher fuel consumption.

Murat Kadir Yesilyurt et al.

Summary: Based on a comprehensive experimental study, increasing the proportion of n-octanol in n-octanol / DF blends can significantly reduce NO and CO emissions, while increasing CO2 emissions. In terms of performance, DF has the highest thermal efficiency and the lowest fuel consumption rate, while n-octanol / DF blends have a longer ignition delay period. Overall, the combustion behavior of n-octanol / DF blends closely follows that of traditional DF.
