Research on Application of Corn-Diesel Fuels in the Diesel Engine

Abstract:

This test was operated on a s195 diesel engine. The test results showed that the corn-diesel fuels were quite good at the specific property of dissolution and low temperatures flow.They could be used as fuel on diesel engine.The fuel consumption rates of corn-diesel fuels were higher than pure diesel fuels. But with the increase of load,the gap dicreased.The corn-diesel fuels couldn't improve CO and HC emissions,but they were good at emissions of NOx and soot. Furthermore, in most of the conditions, NOx emissions of the corn-diesel fuels were lower than the pure diesel fuels, and Small proportion of the corn-diesel fuels were good. Soot emissions of the corn-diesel fuels were lower than the pure diesel,as proportion of the corn oils increased, Soot emissions were lower.
