Experimental Investigation on Diesel Engine Using Processed Waste Engine Oil

Abstract:

An experimental investigation on the performance, emission and combustion characteristics of single cylinder water cooled diesel test engine was carried out at a constant speed of 1500 rpm with processed waste engine oil. The experiments were carried out at different load conditions from no load to 110% load. To compare the results obtained the baseline readings were taken with diesel. The standard operating condition of the engine was 200 bar injection pressure and 23° before Top Dead Center (bTDC). For processed Waste Engine Oil (pWEO) fuel operation the Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE) obtained at rated load point was 32.18 %. at 100 % load and pWEO gave a peak pressure of 64.46 bar compared to 66.12 bar for diesel. There was a 5 % reduction in the Nitrous Oxide (NO) emission with pWEO. Heat release rate (HRR) and exhaust gas temperature showed considerable reduction with pWEO fuel operation.
