Role of global fuel air equivalence ratio and intake charge preheating in dual fuel diesel engines run on biogas and blended oxygenated pilot fuels

Abstract

The diesel engines mainly generate a tremendous quantity of carcinogenic oxides of nitrogen NOx and soot The recently reported works reveal that the conversion of pure diesel mode PDM to dual fuel mode DFM of engine operation has a great ability to curtail the NOx and soot Moreover in DFM both renewable liquid and gaseous fuels can simultaneously be used In this context during the last two decades biodiesels alcohols and ethers in various forms as pilot and biogas as the attractive...
