    Impact of compression ratio and injection parameters on the performance and emissions of a DI diesel engine fueled with biodiesel-blended diesel fuel
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin
    This work investigates the influence of compression ratio (CR) and injection parameters such injection timing (IT) and injection pressure (IP) on the performance and emissions of a DI diesel engine using biodiesel (%5, 20%, 50%, and 100%) blended-diesel fuel. Tests were carried out using three different CRs (17, 18, and 19/1), ITs (15 degrees, 20 degrees, and 25 degrees CA BTDC) and IPs (18, 20 and 22 MPa) at 20 N m engine load and 2200 rpm. The results showed that brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), brake specific energy consumption (BSEC), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions increased while brake thermal efficiency (BTE), smoke opacity (OP), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) decreased with the increase in the amount of biodiesel in the fuel mixture. The best results for BSFC, BSEC and BTE were observed at increased the CR, IP, and original IT. For the all tested fuels, an increase in IP, IT and CR leaded to decrease in the OP. CO and MC emissions while NO emissions increase. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    The impact of fuel injection pressure on the exhaust emissions of a direct injection diesel engine fueled with biodiesel-diesel fuel blends
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012) SAYIN, CENK; Gumus, Metin; Sayin, Cenk; Canakci, Mustafa
    In this study, the effects of fuel injection pressure on the exhaust emissions and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) of a direct injection (DI) diesel engine have been discussed. The engine was fueled with biodiesel-diesel blends when running the engine at four different fuel injection pressures (18, 20, 22, and 24 MPa) and four different engine loads in terms of mean effective pressure (12.5, 25, 37.5, and 50 kPa). The results confirmed that the BSFC, carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and oxygen (O-2) emission increased, smoke opacity, unburned hydrocarbon (UHC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions decreased due to the fuel properties and combustion characteristics of biodiesel. On the other hand, the increased injection pressure caused to decrease in BSFC of high percentage biodiesel-diesel blends (such as B20, B50, and B100), smoke opacity, the emissions of CO, UHC and increased the emissions of CO2, O-2 and NOx. The increased or decreased injection pressure caused to increase in BSFC values compared to original (ORG) injection pressure for diesel fuel and low percentage biodiesel-diesel blends (B5).

    Effect of fuel injection pressure on the injection, combustion and performance characteristics of a DI diesel engine fueled with canola oil methyl esters-diesel fuel blends
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2012) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin; Canakci, Mustafa
    In this study, the influence of injection pressure on the injection, combustion and performance characteristics of a single cylinder, four stroke, direct injection, naturally aspirated diesel engine has been experimentally investigated when using canola oil methyl esters (COME) and its blends with diesel fuel. The tests were conducted for four different injection pressures (18, 20, 22 and 24 MPa) at constant engine speed and different loads. The experimental results showed that the fuels exhibit different injection, combustion and performance characteristics for different engine loads and injection pressure. Investigation on the injection characteristics of the fuels showed that using COME instead of diesel resulted in earlier injection timings. The maximum cylinder pressure, the maximum rate of pressure rise and the maximum heat release rate are slightly lower for COME and its blends. The brake specific fuel consumption and brake specific energy consumption for COME are higher than that for diesel fuel while brake thermal efficiency of COME is generally lower than that of diesel fuel. The increased injection pressure gave better results for brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency compared to the original and decreased injection pressures.

    Influence of injector hole number on the performance and emissions of a DI diesel engine fueled with biodiesel-diesel fuel blends
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2013) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin; Canakci, Mustafa
    In diesel engines, fuel atomization process strongly affects the combustion and emissions. Injector hole number (INHN) particular influence on the performance and emissions because both parameters take important influence on the spray parameters like droplet size and penetration length and thus on the combustion process. Therefore, the INHN effects on the performance and emissions of a diesel engine using biodiesel and its blends were experimentally investigated by running the engine at four different engine loads in terms of brake mean effective pressure (BMEP) (12.5, 25, 37.5 and, 50 kPa). The injector nozzle hole size and number included 340 x 2 (340 mu m diameter holes with 2 holes in the nozzle), 240 x 4, 200 x 6, and 170 x 8. The results verified that the brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission increased, smoke opacity (SO), hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions reduced due to the fuel properties and combustion characteristics of biodiesel. However, the increased INHN caused a decrease in BSFC at the use of high percentage biodiesel diesel blends (B50 and B100), SO and the emissions of CO, HC. The emissions of CO2 and NOx increased. Compared to the original (ORG) INHN, changing the INHN caused an increase in BSFC values for diesel fuel and low percentage biodiesel-diesel blends (B5 and B20). (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

    Effect of Fuel Injection Timing on the Emissions of a Direct-Injection (DI) Diesel Engine Fueled with Canola Oil Methyl Ester-Diesel Fuel Blends
    (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010) SAYIN, CENK; Sayin, Cenk; Gumus, Metin; Canakci, Mustafa
    Biodiesel is the name of a clean burning monoalkyl-ester-based oxygenated fuel made from natural, renewable sources, such as new/used vegetable oils and animal fats. The injection timing plays an important role in determining engine performance, especially pollutant emissions. In this study, the effects of fuel injection timing on the exhaust emission characteristics of a single-cylinder, direct-injection diesel engine were investigated when it was fueled with canola oil methyl ester diesel fuel blends. The results showed that the brake-specific fuel consumption and carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions increased and smoke opacity, hydrocarbon, and carbon monoxide emissions decreased because of the fuel properties and combustion characteristics of canola oil methyl ester. The effect of injection timing on the exhaust emissions of the engine exhibited the similar trends for diesel fuel and canola oil methyl ester diesel blends. When the results are compared to those of original (ORG) injection timing, at the retarded injection timings, the emissions of nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide increased and the smoke opacity and the emissions of hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide decreased for all test conditions. On the other hand, with the advanced injection timings, the smoke opacity and the emissions of hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide diminished and the emissions of nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide boosted for all test conditions. In terms of brake-specific fuel consumption, the best results were obtained from ORG injection timing in all fuel blends.

    Effect of Fuel Injection Timing on the Injection, Combustion, and Performance Characteristics of a Direct-Injection (DI) Diesel Engine Fueled with Canola Oil Methyl Ester-Diesel Fuel Blends
    (AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2010) SAYIN, CENK; Gumus, Metin; Sayin, Cenk; Canakci, Mustafa
    In the last 3 decades, the search for alternative and renewable fuels, which have to be not only sustainable but also friendly with respect to the environment and techno-economically competitive, has gained importance because of the increasing environmental concerns and depletion in petroleum resources. Therefore, in this study, the influence of injection timing on the injection, combustion, and performance characteristics of a single-cylinder, four-stroke, direct-injection, naturally aspirated diesel engine has been experimentally investigated when using canola oil methyl ester (COME) and its blends with diesel fuel. The tests were conducted for three different injection timings [15 degrees, 20 degrees, and 25 degrees crank angle (CA) before top dead center (BTDC] at constant engine speed and different loads. The experimental test results showed that, because of the different properties of COME and diesel, both fuels exhibit different injection, combustion, and performance characteristics for different engine loads and injection timing. Investigation of injection characteristics of the fuels showed that using COME instead of diesel resulted in earlier injection timings. The maximum cylinder pressure, the maximum rate of pressure rise, and the maximum heat release rate are slightly lower, while the ignition timing is higher for COME and its blends for all loads and injection timings. The brake-specific fuel consumption for COME is higher than that of diesel fuel, while the brake thermal efficiency of COME is lower than that of diesel fuel. The original injection timing gave the best results for brake-specific fuel consumption, brake-specific energy consumption, and brake thermal efficiency compared to the advanced and retarded injection timings.
