This introductory study comes up with an innovative idea of using Hydroxyl gas as a fuel performance enhancer to reduce the natural sources and the overuse of fossil fuel resulting in increased pollution levels. Many researchers have used HHO gas to analyze gasoline and diesel in internal combustion engines. The main challenges of using HHO gas in engines have been identified as system complexity, safety, cost, and electrolysis efficiency. This article focuses on different performance reports and the emission characteristics of a compression ignition engine. As opposed to general diesel, this study found that using HHO gas improved brake power and torque. In all cases, an increase in braking thermal efficiency can be observed. This was due to the presence of hydrogen in HHO gas with higher calorific value than fossil fuels. At the same time, the fuel consumption unit of the engine was reduced, and the combined impact of hydrogen and oxygen helped to achieve complete combustion and improved the combustion capacity of the fuel when HHO gas was injected. The addition of HHO gas also improved the Brake Power (BP), Brake Torque (BT), Brake Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC), and thermal efficiency while simultaneously reducing CO and HC formation. The rise in CO2 emissions represented the completion of combustion. Therefore, the usage of HHO gas in the Compression Ignition (CI) engine improved the engine performance and exhaust emissions.

A compound diesel homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion system has been developed based on the combined combustion strategies of multiple injection strategy and a mixing enhanced combustion chamber design. In this work, a STAR-CD based, multidimensional modeling is conducted to understand and optimize the multiple injection processes. The parameters explored included injection timing, dwell time, and pulse width. Insight generated from this study provides guidelines on designing the multipulse injection rate pattern for optimization of fuel-air mixing. Various heat release modes created by different injection strategies are investigated by experimental comparison of combustion efficiency, heat loss, and thermal efficiency. It is demonstrated that the process of fuel evaporation and mixing are strongly influenced by pulse injection parameters. Through control of the parameters, the stratification and autoignition of the premixed mixture, and the heat release mode can be controlled. The dispersed mode of heat release created only by the compound diesel HCCI combustion is a flexible mode in combustion control. The thermal efficiency with this mode can reach approximately to as high as that of conventional diesel combustion, while the NOx and smoke emissions can be reduced simultaneously and remarkably.

Abstract This article examines the prospects of using toluene added cashew nut shell pyro oil–diesel blends as alternative fuels in CI engine. Effects of adding fixed proportion (by vol.) of toluene (TU) to various cashew nut shell pyro oil (CPO)–diesel (D) blends on the performance and exhaust emission characteristics of a direct injection, single cylinder, water cooled, naturally-aspirated, constant speed run, 4-stroke CI engine were investigated under varied brake power conditions. Tested fuels were neat diesel, CPOT5 (5% CPO + 5% TU + 90% D), CPOT10 (10% CPO + 5% TU + 85% D) and CPOT15 (15% CPO + 5% TU + 80% D). CPO was extracted through a lab-scale fast pyrolysis apparatus. Fuel samples were prepared and characterized according to ASTM standards. Owing to the features like low sensitivity, impressive anti pinging, etc., presence of toluene in an optimal CPO-diesel blend was expected to promote the engine characteristics. Set of experiments were conducted for each fuel mixture and the respective in-cylinder pressure, fuel consumption, exhaust emission levels, temperatures were recorded. At the rated power output condition, CPOT5 fuel had shown 1.67% increased brake thermal efficiency, 5% reduced brake specific fuel consumption, almost 3% reduced exhaust gas temperatures as well as reduced the exhaust emissions such as HC (from 91 to 87 ppm), CO (from 0.1 to 0.08%), NOx (from 458 to 426 ppm), smoke levels (from 72 to 69 BSN). CPOT5 showed improved combustion characteristics like reduced ignition delays and combustion durations, increased rates of cylinder pressure rise and heat release. However, overall attained improvements in the engine parameters were found to be not up to the mark which makes the chances of using CPOT5 as best alternative to diesel feeble. Article highlights The Cashew nut shells agro-waste is efficiently converted into an alternative fuel. Effect of adding toluene to pyro oil – diesel blends in CI engine is examined. Engine performance is improved marginally with 1.6% higher brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and 5% lower brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC). Reductions in CO, HC, NOx and smoke emissions are observed. Reduced Ignition delay and combustion durations, increased rate of pressure rise, and increased HRR are observed.
