Abstract
The performance and emission of a single cylinder four stroke variable compression multi fuel engines when fueled with 20%, 25% and 30% of Karanja blended with diesel are investigated and compared with standard diesel. Experiment has been conducted at compression ratios of 15:1, 16:1, 17:1, and 18:1. The impact of compression ratio on fuel consumption, brake thermal efficiency and exhaust gas emissions has been investigated and presented. Experimental analysis on the performance of biodiesel over diesel was evaluated by response surface methodology to find out the optimized working condition. The overall optimum is found to be 25% biodiesel-diesel blended with a compression ratio of 18.
