Abstract: | ABSTRACTCompression ratio is a significant factor among different parameters which governs the emissions and performance factors of the research engine. This work portrays the effect of compression ratio (CR) on cerium oxide nano-particle doped biodiesel and diesel blends. The doping is made at 30, 60 and 90?ppm. The modified fuels are introduced in different compression ratio of 16, 18 and 20. 1500?rpm research engine is made use in this study. Result revealed a significant reduction in emissions (CO, HC and Smoke) at CR?=?20. Further, Performance (BSFC, BTE) is improved for fuel blends at CR?=?20. |
