Performance Analysis of Diesel Engine with Waste Cooking Oil and SC5D Additive

Due to rapid diminution of petroleum fuel, researchers are looking throughout the world for alternate fuels to run the engines. Present days Biodiesel is a best solution to substitute for diesel fuel. Biodiesel is a completely natural, renewable fuel made from biological sources like vegetable oils and animal fatty oils. In most situations, where conventional petroleum such as liquefied petroleum gas, petrol, diesel, kerosene are used. In this paper, Esterified waste cooking oil is blended with diesel in different proportions (B10, B20, B30& B40). Among these proportions SC5D fuel additive is added to B20 which increases performance parameters like brake thermal efficiency, indicated thermal efficiency, mechanical efficiency, brake mean effective pressure, indicated mean effective pressure and decreases the brake specific fuel consumption.
