| Abstract: | This study presents effects of combustion chamber
geometries (hemispherical, toroidal and shallow) by using pongamia oil methyl
ester (POME) blended with diesel (20:80) in a single cylinder, direct injection
diesel engine. Brake thermal efficiency for toroidal combustion chamber was
found higher than that of other two combustion chambers. Significant
improvement in reduction of particulates, carbon monoxide and unburnt
hydrocarbons was observed for toroidal combustion chamber compared to the other
two. However, nitrogen oxides were slightly higher for toroidal combustion
chamber. |
