Abstract

The present study reports the effect of compression ratio on the performance and exhaust emissions of variable compression diesel engine using soyabean oil and it's methyl ester.Results show that brake specific fuel consumption , exhaust gas temperature and smoke density are increased but brake thermal efficiency is decreased both in Soyabean - diesel oil blend and esterified Soyabean oil compared to 100 % diesel operation at two different compression ratios.Engine used for the present work is 5 H.P. ,1500 rpm single cylinder diesel engine of compression ratio 16.
