Experimental analysis of nanofuel additives with magnetic fuel conditioning for diesel engine performance and emissions

The experimental analysis revealed that CuO nanofuel has improved performance and emission characteristics. The engine test results with magnetic fuel conditioning showed that, the CuO nanofuel has better mechanical efficiency of 7%, reduction in BSFC by 6% and reduction in 13% and 19% for CO2 and NOx emissions respectively, compared to diesel fuel. As a whole, CuO nanofuel with magnetic fuel conditioning have pronounced effect on enhancing the brake thermal efficiency and reducing the harmful pollutants of the compression ignition engine.
