Abstract

To investigate the effect of biodiesel on the combustion and emissions of engines, a turbocharged, intercooled DI diesel engine fueled with biodiesel and diesel was used to conduct performance and emission tests on a dynamometer. According to GB17691-2001 (13 Mode), the tests were conducted with the engine running on speed characteristics and load characteristics. Indicator diagrams were recorded. The combustion with biodiesel and diesel fuel was analyzed, and the results show that compared with diesel, biodiesel shortened ignition delay and lowered premixed combustion amount, in despite of an early start of injection caused by the fuel properties. The test results show that when fueled with biodiesel, the emissions of smoke was decreased, HC and CO emissions were decreased by 21.3% and 1.7% (13 Mode), but NO_x emission was increased by 2.9%.
