So, the performance studies of the internal combustion engines play an important role to achieve the best operating point at different weather temperatures. In the present study, the effects of the inlet air temperatures on the engine performance characteristics were studied at different cooling loads. Several experiments were carried out on a single cylinder diesel engine （SCDI）. The performance characteristics of SCDI included： brake power, specific fuel consumption, brake thermal efficiency and exhaust emissions （carbon dioxide, CO2, carbon monoxide CO, and hydrocarbon HC）. The findings show that the inlet air temperature and cooling conditions have appreciable effect on the performance characteristics of the SCDI especially at low cooling rate. It can be concluded that the high cooling rate leads to the enhancement in the brake thermal efficiency, the b.s.f.c, and the emitted COz, CO, and HC. On the other hand the high cooling rate leads to the decrease in the volumetric efficiency. So, a compromising between the inlet air temperature and the cooling rate should be recommended for the engine best performance.展开更多

The EMNB performs adequately and is smaller （20 mm diameter, 34 mm length） than other micro-nano bubblers. It is quite possible to install it in an actual engine. An experiment was performed using a single cylinder engine with a dish or square shaped combustion chamber cavity, and in order to compare the engine speed change, we also used a four cylinder engine with a turbo-charger. The results showed that an improvement in specific fuel consumption, a decrease in the density of the exhaust smoke and an improvement in charging efficiency etc. were achieved by mixing nano bubbles into gas oil under most conditions. It is confirmed that combustion was promoted and improved by a physical and chemical action through mixing the nano bubbles into gas oil.展开更多

An engine with the EMV system and a standard engine were tested to observe the effects of the EMV on engine performance and emissions at different speeds under full load. The EMV engine showed improved engine power, engine torque and break specific fuel consumption （BSFC）. A 66% decrease in CO emissions was also obtained with the EMV system, but hydrocarbons （HC） and NOx emissions increased by 12% and 13% respectively.展开更多
