ABSTRACT:
The increasing demand for sustainable energy sources has prompted research into alternative fuels for conventional internal combustion engines. One such alternative is pine oil, which has shown potential as a renewable fuel for diesel engines. This study aims to investigate the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine powered by pine oil. The research evaluates key engine performance parameters such as power output, torque, fuel efficiency, and combustion characteristics when pine oil is used as a fuel, both in its pure form and in blends with diesel. Emission characteristics including particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO2) are measured to assess the environmental impact of pine oil as a fuel. The results indicate that pine oil blends exhibit comparable performance to conventional diesel, with a reduction in harmful emissions, particularly CO and particulate matter. The study highlights the potential of pine oil as a viable alternative fuel for reducing dependence on fossil fuels while minimizing environmental pollution, offering a pathway to more sustainable energy solutions in the automotive and transportation sectors.
Aim:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine powered by pine oil, either in its pure form or blended with conventional diesel fuel. The study seeks to analyze key engine parameters such as power output, fuel efficiency, and torque, while also assessing the impact of pine oil on emissions, including particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO2). The goal is to determine the viability of pine oil as a renewable alternative fuel that can reduce environmental pollution and contribute to more sustainable energy solutions in diesel engines.
objective:
The objective of this study is to investigate the performance and emission characteristics of a diesel engine when powered by pine oil, either as a pure fuel or as a blend with traditional diesel. This research aims to assess key performance metrics such as power output, torque, and fuel efficiency, while also analyzing the effect of pine oil on harmful emissions like nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and particulate matter (PM). The study further seeks to compare these results with those from conventional diesel fuel to evaluate the potential of pine oil as a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative fuel for diesel engines, contributing to reduced environmental impact.
