Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAn Experimental Investigation on Performance of CI Engine Using Diesel, Esterified Cotton Seed Oil and Diethyl Carbonate as AdditiveVikram G. Kamble, Samson Paul PintoIn this study, Cotton seed oil ethyl ester was produced by transesterification process. The performance of diesel engine was experimentally investigated by using cotton seed oil ethyl ester as fuel. For the study cotton seed oil ethyl ester was mixed with diesel fuel and B20 blend was prepared. Also Diethyl Carbonate was added as an additive in 4, 8 and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF METHYL ESTER OF COTTON SEED OIL BLEND WITH DIESEL ON CI ENGINEK. Vijayaraj, A. P. SathiyagnanamPetroleum based fuels worldwide have not only resulted in the rapid depletion of conventional energy sources, but have also caused severe air pollution. The search for an alternate fuel has led to many findings due to which a wide variety of alternative fuels are available at our disposal now. The existing studies have revealed the use of vegetable oils for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Oct 2014 · 6,771 accessesView PDFCite
