Influence of the aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticle additive with biodiesel on the modified diesel engine performance

Modification in the both base biofuel and engine design is highly distinctive to accomplish extent fuel conversion efficiency for the biodiesel-operated diesel engine. In the present study, the effect of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) (75 ppm) nanoparticles on the performance of baseline (unmodified) and modified diesel engine is studied. The experimental results are compared with those of the baseline engine run with sole 20% dairy scum biodiesel (B20) and petro-diesel. From the study, it is clear that the modified engine run with 75-ppm Al2O3 blended biodiesel has revealed the better performance than the baseline engine run with sole B20 fuel blend.

Automated summary

The study found that the modified engine running with 75 ppm Al2O3 blended biodiesel performed better than the baseline engine running with sole B20 fuel blend.
