| Abstract: |
The aim is to examine the emission and performance of hydrogen-enriched diesel and canola seed oil biodiesel (CANOB20) in a diesel engine to assess its potential as an alternative fuel. Experimental test were conducted on a Kirloskar engine equipped with an eddy current dynamometer. Hydrogen was added into the air intake manifold at flow rates of 3, 6, and 9 liters per minute, while diesel and CANOB20 were supplied as the primary fuels. The study evaluated the effects of hydrogen enrichment on engine combustion, performance and emissions by analyzing the engine performance and emission parameters. The test results indicated that hydrogen enrichment significantly improved engine emission and performance characteristics compared to pure diesel and canola biodiesel, with the most notable enhancements observed at 9 liters per minute hydrogen addition. However, a slight increase in NOₓ emissions was detected, which is a common trade-off with hydrogen supplementation. Overall, the findings suggest that hydrogen-enriched CANOB20 is a potential substitute fuel that offers better performance and lower emissions for CI engines though further optimization may be needed to address NOₓ levels. The BTE increases by 12% and 11%, BSFC decreases by 14% and 13%, CO decreases by 45% and 31%, HC decreases by 5% and 29%, CO2 decreases by 10% and 3% respectively for D+ H2 9LPM and CANOB20+H2 9LPM.
