Nano Additive Methyl Ester for Emission Reduction in CI Engines

The present experimental work aims at investigating the effect of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide nanoparticles addition in Calophyllum inophyllum biodiesel in a twin cylinder water cooled direct injection four stroke diesel engine. The nanofluids have been prepared from 50 ppm and 100 ppm concentrations of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide with distilled water through an ultrasonication process.

New Design Solution for Crankshaft

The crankshaft is a key part moving in the internal combustion engine. It converts the reciprocating piston movement into rotary motion. It is exposed to different forces resulted from the pistons pressures, friction, bending stresses and others. The paper concentrates on protecting the crankshaft journals from the direct impact of the piston pressure and other forces.

Oxygen Supplemented Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is a form of internal combustion in which well-mixed fuel and oxidizer (typically air) are compressed to the point of auto-ignition. As in other forms of combustion, this exothermic reaction releases energy that can be transformed in an engine into work and heat.

Piston-chain Arrangement for Internal Combustion Engine

Piston-chain arrangement in IC engine is a method to replace the crank shaft by chain/belt and two connected sprocket/wheels. This method can convert the rotational motion of the crank shaft to a combination of rotational and linear motion. The main advantage of this method is its high efficiency. In the present IC engines,
