Abstract
This review paper studies potential alternative fuels for automobile engine application for compression ignition CI engines. Diesel engines are favorable for use due to its fuel consumption and higher torque. Nowadays, we are facing the difficulties of crisis of fossil fuels due to rapid increase in demand of it in automobiles and industries. The use of fossil fuels further leads to environmental degradation by polluting the air. Hence, in the present era, more importance is given on alternative source of energy for running the engines. The representative alternative fuels for CI engines include biodiesel, di-methyl ether DME , and jet propellent-8 JP-8 . Naphtha can be also used as an alternative fuel for advanced combustion in premixed charge compression ignition. The production methods, storage characteristics, and the supply chain of each alternative fuel are discussed, and are followed by concentrating the attention on the main research topics for the mentioned alternative fuels. Literature survey investigates on relative advantages and disadvantages of alternative fuels for application to engine combustion. The engine combustion study consists of the combustion process from spray development, air-fuel mixing characteristics, to the final combustion product formation, which are studied for each alternative fuel. An overview is obtained for alternative fuels together with summaries of engine combustion characteristics for each fuel, in addition to its current status and future scopes.
