Investigating the Influence of Injection Pressure on Performance of CI Engine Fuelled with Simarouba Biodiesel | Chapter 5 | Recent Developments in Engineering Research Vol. 3

 

Biodiesel is explored as one of the promising fuel alternative to diesel. Most of the biodiesel
production comes from first generation feedstocks like edible oils. Nowadays, nonedible oils are
getting much attention as potential second generation tree borne oil feedstock In this regard, the
present research is focused on identifying non-edible feedstock as viable feedstock for biodiesel
preparation. The simarouba biodiesel is blended with diesel by 5% and 20% on volume basis. The
simarouba biodiesel blends SB5 and SB20 were tested on engine by varying IP to determine its
performance and exhaust emissions. The SB5 and SB20 biodiesel blends were experimented on CI
engine at injection pressure (IP) of 200 bar and 250 bar for improved performance and reduced
emissions.
