Forecasting diesel fuel prices
… and wheat production which requires considerable diesel fuel to meet producer output objectives. An ability to anticipate fuel price movements may allow producers, farm managers, and fuel distributors to better plan their transactions to reduce costs or to hedge against price change. Despite …

Thermal and chemical analysis of carbonaceous materials: diesel soot and diesel fuel reactor deposits
… methods were applied to two such materials, viz. diesel soot and diesel fuel deposits. Diesel soot: Diesel soot, sampled from a commuter bus, was characterised using an array of analytical techniques. Physical and chemical characterisation of diesel soot was conducted with particular interest in …

Investigation of combustion and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fueled with butanol-diesel blends
… the combustion and emission characteristics of diesel engine running on butanol-diesel blends. The blending ratio of butanol to diesel was varied from 0 to 40 vol% using an increment of 10 vol%, and each blend was tested on a 2.7 L V6 common rail direction injection diesel engine equipped with …

Identifying diesel compounds using Kovat's index
Diesel is a liquid fuel that is specifically designed for diesel engines that work on compression of inlet air to ignite the fuel. It is a very complex mixture that can vary between C₉ and C₂₅. Identification of these compounds was done using GC-MS.However, as that wasn't enough, extra step was …

Experimental Studies of Diesel Particle Filtration
… have led to the widespread application of the diesel particle filter (DPF) in engine exhaust systems to limit emissions of combustion-generated particles. The collection of particulate matter in exhaust after-treatment devices depends on a number of mechanisms for aerosol particle deposition …

Quantification Of Auto-Ignition In Diesel Engines
<p>Efforts have been made previously by researchers to quantify the auto-ignition quality of fuels by calculating global activation energy using Arrhenius plots with data measured for the ignition delay period (ID). Large variation in the activation energy of fuels has been observed even for fuels …

Bore polishing of diesel engine cylinder liners
There are two important omissions in the literature on bore polishing, firstly there is no evidence of the successful development of a reliable tribo test device to simulate bore polishing and secondly, the mechanism of bore polishing has not been fully defined. The aims of this study were: 1. To …

Optimization algorithms for loading military diesel generators
… The constraints include the use of military diesel gensets that remain disconnected from each other and are loaded below a user-defined real power threshold (for a reliability safety cushion). In addition, the system must be simple enough to be constructed with minimal training and require no …

Modeling deposit formation in diesel injector nozzle
Formation of deposit in the diesel injector nozzle affects the injection behavior and hinders performance. Under running condition, deposit precursors are washed away by the ensuing injection. However, during the cool down process after engine shut down, fuel, detergent chemistry, and fluid …
