...Shashank Sharma Charlapally; Yogesh Biswal; Guguloth Mahesh Nayak; Karthick Chinnadurai; Saravanan Balusamy; Nanthagopal Kasianantham The current research investigates the spray behavior of lemon peel oil (LPO) and butanol in a controlled environment under various engine-like conditions. The liquid...

... with gasoline, v/v), and GB10 (10% butanol blended with gasoline, v/v) vis-à-vis baseline gasoline was performed. Results exhibited that gasohol-fueled engines emitted relatively lower particulate mass and numbers. Trace metal analysis was performed to explore the composition of PM, which showed that gasoline...

...Avinash Kumar Agarwal; Yeshudas Jiotode; Nikhil Sharma In situ spatial soot and temperature distributions were investigated experimentally for B20 (20% v/v butanol and balance mineral diesel blend) vis-a-vis mineral diesel using endoscopic visualization technique. Endoscope captured the in-cylinder...

...Nikhil Sharma; Avinash Kumar Agarwal Butanol is an oxygenated renewable fuel and therefore is a potential candidate to be blended with gasoline to reduce particulate emissions. In this experimental investigation, particle number-size (PN-size) distribution and morphology (physical characterization...

... at different engine speeds (1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 rpm), different fuel injection pressures (FIP: 40, 80, 120, 160 bars) and different test fuel blends namely 15% (v/v) butanol, ethanol, and methanol blended with gasoline, respectively (Bu15, E15, and M15) and baseline gasoline at a fixed (optimum) spark...
