PERFORMANCE INVESTIGATION AND EXHAUST ANALYSIS OF C.I ENGINE FUELLED BY DIESEL MIXED WITH JAMUN SEED POWDER AND JACK FRUIT SEED POWDER

Diesel prime movers are the dominating sources of air pollution. Plenty of trials are going on to overcome this issue, but still, it's a challengeable task to replace fossil fuel completely, because of its peculiarity. In this experimental work, an attempt is made to check deviation in performance and emissions of diesel fuel by adding jamun seed powder and jack fruit seed powder, directly. Two different samples have been prepared on mass basis and named as JJS-1 and JJS-2. Test is conducted on computerized single cylinder, water cooled diesel engine with pure diesel, JJS-1 and JJS-2 at different loads. JJS-1 sample performance characteristics are slightly improved at half load and almost equal to diesel at higher load. Positive impression has been observed in emissions, which are observed as considerable reduction in NOx. and JJS-2 sample has not given any observable positive results. The future scope of the work can be further extended at different speeds and compression ratios.
