| Abstract: | This study presents effects of biodiesel blends namely B20K fuel (80% diesel + 20% Karanja biodiesel) on single cylinder diesel engine performance and lubricating oil under two long duration endurance tests of 512 h. SAE grade 15W 40 engine oil was used for both the tests. Experimental results indicated that engine can be safely operated with B20 fuel, without significant changes in engine power, fuel economy and lubricating oil properties. |
