In this study, a spark ignition engine operated with DME blended LPG fuel was experimentally investigated. In particular, performance, emissions characteristics (including hydrocarbon, CO, and NO, emissions), and combustion stability of an SI engine fuelled with DME blended LPG fuel were examined at 1800 and 3600 rpm. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible for a wide range of engine loads up to 20% by mass DME fuel. Further, we demonstrated that, up to 10% DME, output engine power was comparable to that of pure LPG fuel. Exhaust emissions measurements showed that hydrocarbon and NO, emissions were slightly increased when using the blended fuel at low engine speeds. However, engine power output was decreased and break specific fuel consumption (BSFC) severely deteriorated with the blended fuel since the energy content of DME is much lower than that of LPG. Furthermore, due to the high cetane number of DME fuel, knocking was significantly increased with DME. Considering the results of the engine power output and exhaust emissions, blended fuel up to 10% DME by mass can be used as an alternative to LPG, and DME blended LPG fuel is expected to have potential for enlarging the DME market.
