Popis: The test case was semi adiabatic diesel engine (SADE) produced by thermal barrier 8 YSZ (Yttria Stabilized Zirconia) ceramic coated cylinder head and liner with bond coat NiCrAl as an intermediate layer and coupled with an EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) of 10% constant rate. The test fuels injected directly into the combustion chamber are diesel and blend A15B85 by vol. (Additive Diethyl Ether 15% + Rubber seed based Biodiesel 85%). Throughout the experimentation, a constant compression ratio 18:1, fuel injection pressure 190 bar and speed 1800 rpm. Load from 0% to 100% and start of injection (SOI) timing from 300 BTDC to 350 BTDC were varied to investigate performance, in-cylinder pressure and emission parameters of SADE and ordinary diesel engine (ODE) fuelled by test fuels. It was found that advancement of SOI timing improved all the investigated parameters except NOx emissions. Compared to ODE with diesel at any specific SOI timing, the test case with blend found to be favourable. The optimum results of SADE were 7% enhancement of BTE with the reduction in BSEC by 5.5%, particulates by 48.5%, NOx by 19.5% and exhaust gas temperature by 18.5% found with the blend at 330 BTDC with higher load compared to ODE with neat diesel at 300 BTDC. The optimum configuration of ODE found to be diesel fuel at 340 BTDC with higher load.
