Abstract The researchers around the globe are trying to overcome energy crisis by developing suitable alternative energy source. In this work, combustion and performance analysis of a diesel engine was studied running in dual-fuel mode using producer gas. The experiment shows lower engine performance like brake thermal efficiency, increased brake specific fuel consumption and exhaust gas temperature in dual-fuel run as compared to diesel alone run. Combustion characteristics like cylinder pressure, mass fraction burned, mean combustion temperature and net heat release were also found to be deteriorated in presence of producer gas. The peak value of cylinder pressure and net heat release were noticed slightly away from the top dead center. The experimentation indicates that combustion improving techniques should be employed to enhance the performance of the dual-fuel engine to run with producer gas.

Abstract Experiments are performed on a diesel engine working in single fuel mode using fossil diesel (FD) as well as 5% and 10% (v/v) di-ethyl ether (DEE) additives with FD as fuels as well as in dual fuel mode using the above fuels as pilot fuels along with producer gas (PG) as primary fuel. This study aims to draw comparative analyses of engine combustion, performance and emission characteristics using the above fuel combinations to establish the most suitable fuel strategy for a diesel engine. The study revealed greater control over nitric oxide (NO) and smoke opacity in dual fuel mode compared to single fuel mode operations. Addition of DEE with FD, produced lower HC and CO emissions, comparable NO emissions along with reduced smoke opacity compared to FD in both modes of operation. Further, in dual fuel mode operation, the diesel percentage energy substitution (PES) reduced with increase in DEE content in the blends. The tradeoff study involving engine performance and emissions with respect to the cost of operation revealed that the fuel strategy used in dual fuel mode operation delivered better engine performance along with reduced NO emission and smoke opacity at lower operational cost compared to all the considered fuel strategy in single fuel mode operation. Especially, FD+5% DEE+PG and FD+10% DEE+PG fuel strategies were found to be the most suitable dual fuel mode combinations in a diesel engine in terms of their superior engine performance, lower emissions along with better economy.
