Abstract:
The growth in the number of cars and the increasing demand for fuels require scientific work to develop alternative fuels. The energy crisis, which is becoming more and more evident, is not unimportant. The manuscript presents an analysis of the possibility of using agricultural biofuels to power a diesel engine. The analysis was carried out in relation to the operation of the engine on conventional fuels. The D-241 engine under investigation is mainly used for agricultural tractors. During the tests carried out, the load characteristics of the diesel engine under investigation were determined as a function of fuel type and speed. The concentrations of CO, HC and NOx were analysed. Laboratory tests of the engine were carried out with a wide range of external loads to evaluate measurement errors for the measurement method. Experiments with the engine under investigation have shown that the hourly and specific biofuel consumption of diesel engines increases by an average of 11–16%. CO and NOx concentrations were found to be lower with increasing load compared to conventional diesel engines, while NOx concentrations are slightly increased. In all cases investigated, a decrease in exhaust development was observed.

Abstract:
The use of biodiesel as fuel in light- and heavy-diesel engine vehicles in general will negatively affects the lubricant performance. the changes in lubricants properties during the use of B20 were investigated. Two type of vehicles engines were used, namely heavy duty and light duty diesel engines. The road test wascarried out until 40,000 km, while the lubricant was drained and analysed only for 10,000 km of distances. The laboratory test was conducted to observe both fresh and used lubricants. The results show that the biodiesel dilutions were less than 2% both in light- and heavy-duty diesel engines. The kinematic viscositiesof 4 samples of used lubricants in light-duty diesel engine were decreased in the ranges of 0.58 – 7.5%, while in heavy-duty diesel engines were 4.66-16.04% from the initial values. The decreasing of TBNs were less than 14% in light-duty diesel engine and fewer than 16% in heavy-duty diesel engine fuelled by biodiesel (B20). Meanwhile, the acidity of used engine oil was increased until 173% for light-duty diesel engine and 63% heavy-duty diesel engine compare to the initial values. The results show that the metal additives decreased while wear metal increased. According to this study, the increasing of wear metal (copper) in the used lubricants were less than 23% in light-duty diesel engine and lower than 26% in heavy-duty diesel engine fuelled by biodiesel (B20). Meanwhile, the lead contents of used engine oil were increased to 3.2 ppm in heavy-duty diesel engine and was not detected in light-duty diesel engine. After all, this work found that the lubricants exhibit good performances in the light- and heavy-duty diesel engines fuelled by B20. The changes of some critical properties were still in the acceptable values regarding to the specification as required in the SNI-7069-5 (2021).

Abstract:
Today, internal combustion engines are very common as energy sources in many countries around the world. This makes the tasks related to improving the environmental performance of internal combustion engines relevant. The introduction of alternative fuels in internal combustion engines is an effective way to reduce their negative impact on the environment. One of the most available and widespread alternative fuels for diesels is a water-fuel emulsion. The use of water-fuel emulsion makes it possible to reduce the specific fuel consumption of petroleum origin, as well as to achieve a significant reduction in emissions of harmful substances from diesel exhaust. However, due to differences in the physical properties of traditional diesel fuel and water-fuel emulsion, the course of the processes of mixture formation and combustion in the diesel cylinder changes significantly. This may be due to the emergence of a reserve for further improvement of the diesel engine by selecting the parameters of the diesel engine running on water-fuel emulsion. The study selected the following parameters for variation: compression ratio, boost pressure, duration of the injection process, injection timing. The article considers the influence of these parameters on the Brake-specific fuel consumption of diesel, the specific emission of particulate matter and nitrogen oxides, the maximum pressure in the cylinder. The nature and degree of influence of changes in the parameters of the diesel engine on its performance was determined using mathematical modeling. It should be noted that the influence of each of the parameters selected for variation is quite complex and often ambiguous. That is, when some indicators improve, others may deteriorate somewhat. Therefore, in order to select the most rational parameters of a diesel engine running on a water-fuel emulsion, it is necessary to simultaneously assess the economic and environmental performance of the diesel engine. For this assessment, a method was used to determine a comprehensive fuel and environmental criterion for a diesel engine running on a water-fuel emulsion. Thus, the article shows the potential for comprehensive improvement of environmental and economic performance of the diesel engine by choosing rational parameters.

Abstract:
Agriculture needed a simple engine running on cheap fuel to switch to mechanical traction. Due to its simplicity and ability to work on oil, colorization engines have become widespread, including in agriculture. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in identifying the key issues that influenced the creation of diesel engines with divided combustion chamber: indirect, pre-chamber, as well as studying the story of the creation of the indirect diesel, the first diesel tractors. (Materials and methods) The article notes the importance of the International Congress of figures involved in the construction and use of internal combustion engines, and the exhibition organized at the same time. The exhibition presents 95 engines, 23 of them were created at Russian factories. The holding of the international event and the wide participation of domestic engine manufacturers in it testified to the development of engine design in Russia. (Results and discussion) The article notes that despite the success of the world engine building, the problem of creating a lightweight diesel of high specific power, suitable for installation on automotive equipment, has not been solved yet. The article consideres the history of creation of a high-speed turbocharged diesel engine with a "soft" flow of the working stroke. (Conclusions) A two-cylinder pre-chamber diesel engine with a capacity of 18 kilowatts (25 horsepower) at 800 rpm by P. L'Orange was produced by Benz & Cie in 1922 and intended for agricultural machinery. The Benz-Sendling S6 motor plow with the Benz & Cie diesel was launched in March 1923. In addition to three-wheeled tractors and motor plows, since 1923, Benz and Sendling have offered a four-wheeled model of the BK diesel tractor. The first serial diesel tractor in Europe is considered to be the Deutz tractor. Produced in 1927, the MTH 222 tractor was equipped with a 14-horsepower single-cylinder engine with an additional chamber.

Abstract:
The diesel engine is utilized in most commercial vehicles to carry items from various firms; nevertheless, diesel engines emit massive amounts of nitrogen oxides (NOx) which are harmful to human health. A typical approach for reducing NOx emissions from diesel engines is the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system; however, several reasons make reducing NOx emissions a challenge: urea particles frequently become solid in the injector and difficult to disseminate across the system; the injector frequently struggles to spray the smaller particles of urea; the larger urea particles from the injector readily cling to the system; it is also difficult to evaporate urea droplets because of the exhaust and wall temperatures (Tw), resulting in an increase in solid deposits in the system, uncontrolled ammonia water solution injection, and NOx emissions problems. The light-duty diesel engine (LDD), medium-duty diesel engine (MDD), heavy-duty diesel engine (HDD), and marine diesel engine use different treatments to optimize NOx conversion efficiency in the SCR system. This review analyzes several studies in the literature which aim to increase NOx conversion in different diesel engine types. The approach and methods demonstrated in this study provide a suitable starting point for future research into reducing NOx emissions from diesel engines, particularly for engines with comparable specifications.

Abstract:
Abstract A prerequisite for the long-term and safe operation of marine diesel engines is the high quality of operational materials, which include engine oils and coolants. The required quality of operational materials is ensured by the introduction of additives into their composition, which are now increasingly used as nanoparticles. During operation, as a result of the destruction of additives, the operational properties of coolants and engine oils deteriorate. The conducted studies allowed us to evaluate the change in the lubricating ability of engine oils of two brands that are used in marine diesels during operation. As a characteristic of the lubricating ability of the oil, its kinematic viscosity was used. The experimental determination of the kinematic viscosity of engine oil samples having different periods of operation, and the subsequent mathematical processing of the experimental results made it possible to determine the dependencies characterizing the change in the kinematic viscosity of engine oil during its operation. The research results confirm the possibility of scientific justification for extending the use of marine diesel engine oils, which reduces operating costs and increases the environmental safety of marine diesel engines.

Abstract:
Ever growing population and increased energy consumption across all industries has resulted in higher atmospheric concentration of the greenhouse gases (GHG) and therefore an increase in the planet's average temperature, which has led to increasingly demanding and more strict legislations on pollutant sources, and more specifically, the automotive industry. As a consequence of all this, the demand for research into alternative energy sources has greatly increased. In this study combustion characteristics, engine performance, and exhaust emission of diesel-ethanol and diesel-gasoline are investigated in an optical direct injection diesel engine. In particular, effects of different substitution ratios and diesel injection strategies are studied when the total fuel energy is kept constant. The three main substitution ratios used in this study include 45% (45% of fuel energy from port-injected ethanol/gasoline and 55% from direct injection diesel), 60%, and 75%. The engine used for this investigation is a Ricardo Hydra single cylinder optical engine running at 1200 rpm. In-cylinder pressure measurement is used for calculating all engine parameters, heat release rate, and efficiency. In addition to the thermodynamic analysis of the combustion parameters, high speed camera was used alongside with a copper vapor laser or the high speed image intensifier in the high speed video imaging for the optical analysis of the effect of the above-mentioned parameters on autoignition and combustion processes, while Horiba particulate analyser and AVL smoke meter were utilized in monitoring and recording emissions for every tested condition. Depending on the testing conditions, such as injection strategy and intake conditions, both dual-fuel operations were able to deliver high efficiency and improved emissions compared to that of a pure diesel engine operation, with the diesel-gasoline operation offering more consistency in improved thermal efficiency, and the diesel-ethanol operation delivering lower emission output. The optical analysis of the combustion represents the main difference in the flame propagation, distribution and quality for each substitute fuel and its substitution percentage, as well as the condition under examination.

Abstract:
This thesis presents the investigation into the potential of improving the performance of Diesel engine through changes in the engine thermal management with the flexibility of integrating the changes from the engine control strategy. Analysis into previous studies in related area has identified low coolant inlet temperature, split cooling system and control of lubricant oil temperature as the features which held such potential. These features are further studied by implementing them on a mass produced Diesel engine in an experimental investigation. Although the engine response on fuel consumption and NOx output for most of the test conditions follow established trends with regard operating temperature, where higher operating temperatures increase NOx output but lowers fuel consumption, there are few unusual responses which can only be accounted by minor change in combustion characteristics. To evaluate the effect of these features, the resulting engine responses from various thermal conditions is compared against those of conventional engine control parameters. It is found that changing the thermal settings can lower the engine fuel consumption much more effectively than changing the settings of engine control parameter but the situation is reversed in the case of NOx output. Further, net improvement offered by the thermal variation is established by integrating the effect of the thermal variation within the flexibility in the fuel injection timing to produce optimised solutions. The optimised solutions indicate that there is a specific set of optimum operating temperature for the cylinder head and engine block every engine speed and load condition. The trend of the required average metal temperature required for optimum engine performance indicate the need for an active controlled engine cooling system in Diesel engine for enhanced performance.

Abstract:
Thermal oil oxidation is an important reason for the engine oil degradation in trucks. Having a comprehensive model that includes all the influential factors while it is feasible for being implemented in the ECUs, was aimed for this work. Therefore, the chemical investigating of the problem leaded to propose a first kinetic model and its thermal analysis caused modelling the oil thermal behaviour. The latter was developed for four compartments: Bearings, turbocharger, piston cooling and oil sump in the oil path through the lubrication system, because the highest oil temperature happens due to friction, combustion of fuels and exhaust gas transportation. Independency from the design parameters of the compartments and simplicity of models for the ECU implementation caused to investigate two various modelling hybrid approach: physical modelling and control theory approach. The first one was done for the bearings and piston cooling, and showed a high level of complexity leading to switch to the second approach. The latter was applied for all compartments while it satisfied requested requirements. To adjust and evaluate the models, an experimental campaign was devoted to acquiring the needed parameters with consideration of the project budget. Also using the previous simulation and experimental efforts at the company provided a possibility to develop flow rate sub-models used in the thermal modelling. The proposed model for all compartments, well predicted the oil thermal behaviour for both stationary and dynamic operating conditions. A comparison between the experimental data for the oil in the oil sump and turbo charger was done to show the reliability of the related models in both stationary and transient statuses. For the bearings, the simulation data for stationary condition were applied as a reference. The modelled oil temperature after piston cooling was compared to a set of experimental data that presented the probable temperature in some conditions close to stationary operating points.

Abstract:
The demand for the protection of the environment from air pollution and reduction of carbon dioxide has resulted in worldwide exhaust emissions regulations imposed on the diesel engines. Fortunately, diesel engine offers the best fuel economy and low emissions of carbon dioxide of most engines currently available. However, the engine's inherent drawbacks are that the engine is heavy, noisy, and expensive, in addition to producing significant level of particulates and nitrogen oxides emissions. The present research attempts to understand the combustion characteristics and emissions trade-off by experimental investigations of the diesel engine using a production Lister Petter 2.97 litres, four-cylinder, high-speed, direct injection diesel engine. The investigation involved the analysis of the in-cylinder pressure data, heat release rate calculation and exhaust gas measurements of various injectors having different nozzle geometry. The engine experiments cover both the investigation of the fuel injection and the engine operating parameters such as injection rate, nozzle geometry, the engine load and speed. The effects of each parameter on ignition delay, heat release rate, nitrogen oxides emissions, smoke density, and total hydrocarbon levels were investigated. Two complementary diagnostic techniques were employed in order to assist in understanding the injection characteristics. The first technique involved the imaging of the fuel sprays from the different injectors in a constant volume spray chamber using a CCD camera. The images were than process using a dedicated image processing software. The second technique involved the measurements of the fuel injection rates from the injectors using the Bosch Tube meter. A three-zone model was developed to determine the heat release rate of combustion. The cylinder pressure data was used to validate the model written in Matlab computer programme. The model is based on the principles of the First Law of Thermodynamics applied to the three zones, formed due to the fuel injection into the combustion chamber. The heat release rate profiles produced by the model were used to analyse the formation of pollutants that were measured in the exhaust gas. The results showed that injectors with large nozzle hole diameters produced high smoke levels, especially at high engine load conditions with small increase in NOx. These injectors also caused the sprays to impinged on the combustion chamber walls at high load conditions. On the other hand, injectors having small nozzle hole diameters produced high levels of NOx while the smoke emission levels were low. The effect of nozzle geometry has little significant on the emissions of THC.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: With worldwide emissions standards becoming more stringent over the last decade, the South African market seems set to follow suit. Older technology engines are however unable to attain these stringent standards and will require cleaner burning fuels. Biofuels like biodiesel and bioethanol-diesel blends are an attractive option as a result of their inherently oxygenated nature and renewable, low carbon footprint. Oxygenated fuels have been found to lower particulate and soot emissions without any significant increase in NOx, thus alleviating the usual particulate-NOx trade-off. In this study an existing diesel engine test facility has been upgraded to include emission equipment, and a low cost pressure indicating system. Fuel-to-fuel comparative testing was done with pump diesel and splash blended fuels consisting of pump diesel blended with varying amounts of ethanol and also biodiesel without including any cetane enhancing or blend stability additives. Emission analysis of the blended fuels showed a marked reduction in soot emission with little to no increase in NOx emission for all oxygenated fuels. This type of soot reduction without NOx increase is difficult to obtain through any other method. Blend stability was however a problem with the 15% ethanol-diesel blends.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Met wêreldwye uitlaatgas standaarde wat al hoe strenger geword het oor die laaste dekade, lyk dit asof dit net ‘n kwessie van tyd is voor Suid-Afrika dieselfde roete volg. Ouer tegnologie binnebrandenjins kan egter nie hierdie streng standaarde handhaaf nie en sal dus vereis dat die brandstof skoner brand. Biobrandstowwe, soos biodiesel en bio-etanol-diesel mengsels, blyk ‘n aantreklike opsie te wees vanweë hul natuurlike inhoud van suurstof en as hernubare hulpbron. Wanneer suurstof houdende brandstowwe soos hierdie verbrand word, word daar gevind dat daar ‘n daadwerklike afname in rook uitlaat is sonder enige merkbare toename in NOx uitlaatgasse. Dit is teenstrydig met die gewoonlike wisselwerking wat daar tussen hierdie twee uitlaatgas produkte is. In hierdie studie word die bestaande diesel enjin toetssel opgegradeer om uitlaatgas analiese toerusting asook ‘n lae-koste silinderdruk meettoestel te bevat. Brandstof-tot-brandstof vergelykings toetse word gedoen met gewone diesel asook toets diesel wat gemengde konsentrasies biodiesel of bio-etanol bevat. Die toets diesel bevat egter geen aanvullings om mengselstabiliteit of cetaan te verbeter nie. Toetsresultate toon dat daar merkbare vermindering in rook uitlaat is met min tot geen toename in NOx. Hierdie tipe van resultaat met produkte van ontbranding is moeilik om op enige ander manier te bewerkstellig. Daar word ook gevind dat diesel met 15 % bio-etanol nie ‘n stabiele mengsel is nie en dat fase skeiding plaasvind.

Abstract:
To reduce the dependency on fossil-based energy resources, the utilization of renewable fuels in unmodified diesel engines is gaining more emphasis from researchers in the recent years. The aim of the current study is to take part in the efforts being made to this regard by experimentally investigating a compression ignition engine fueled with different fuels ((diesel, diesel-biodiesel (B20), and diesel-biodiesel-butanol (BU20)) for their performance and emissions comparison. The experimental study was conducted in a water cooled single-cylinder direct injection (DI) diesel engine. It was operated at a constant engine operation speed of 1800 rpm and under varied engine load conditions. It is found that BU20 shows promising results in terms of performance and emissions characteristics as compared to using B20 and D100. Butanol addition to diesel-biodiesel blends is considered as an appropriate solution of higher density and viscosity the blend and thus for the sustainable usability of biodiesel. Maximum thermal efficiency improvement of 3.18% was observed at an engine load of 75%. The NOx emission was improved with BU20 as compared to the conventional diesel fuel (D100) at most of the engine loads. As an improvement on the engine performance and emissions is reported from the current study, the BU20 fuel blends can be used in similar engines with no further engine retrofitting. This blend can be a good environmental friendly fuel that can serve in the reduction of fossil-based diesel fuels. A further study on diesel engine tribology is required.

Abstract:
Current demand of transport fuel requires exploring every possible plant resource of engine fuel which can deliver satisfactory performance, emission, combustion and engine durability. Blending smaller quantity of Jatropha oil with mineral diesel is one of the simplest alternatives which can be put into application from technical and availability perspective. High viscosity of Jatropha oil (vegetable oil) comes into acceptable range upon blending with mineral diesel upto 20% (v/v). After ensuring satisfactory performance, emission and combustion characteristics, engines were subjected to long-term endurance test of 512 hour for comparing long-term performance of J5 and J10 blends vis-a`-vis mineral diesel, in the present experimental investigation. In the long-term endurance test, the effect of use of Jatropha oil blends on wear of various engine parts and lubricating vis-a`-vis mineral diesel were evaluated. The deposits on the vital engine parts were found to be slightly higher on J10 fuelled engine while it was comparable to mineral diesel for J5 fuelled engine. The piston rating carried out on the pistons of the three engines reflected that the J5 fuelled engines demonstrated reasonable long-term performance in comparison to mineral diesel fuelled engine while performance of J10 fuelled engine was slightly inferior. J5 and J10 fuelled engine’s lubricating oil shows higher reduction in lubricating oil viscosity and flash point compared to mineral diesel, thus indicating possibly higher fuel dilution. Fe, Pb, Cr, Zn wear metal debris in the lubricating oil are lower for J5 and J10 compared to mineral diesel engine’s lubricating oil however Al content in the lubricating oil is slightly higher for J5 and J10 compared to mineral diesel engine’s lubricating oil. Physical wear measurement of vital engine parts indicate relatively higher wear of liner bore, piston rings and big end bearing for J5 and J10 fuelled engine while wear of valve mounting, piston, gudgeon pin, crank pin was found to be relatively lower than mineral diesel fuelled engine. It was found that the wear of J5 engine liners is higher compared to mineral diesel fuelled engine. However wear of J10 fuelled engine liner is found to be relatively lower compared to mineral diesel fuelled engine.
