In this article, failure analysis was examined in four-cylinder light-duty truck diesel engine crankshaft. The failure happened in service after 95,000 km of operation by fatigue crack growth which was initiated from a surface defect on the second crankpin from the crankpin–web fillet. For such objective, standard specimens were cut off from the crankshaft and examined to evaluate the mechanical properties...
The present work attempts to determine the optimal engine load, fuel injection pressure (FIP), start of injection timing (SOI) and pilot-main injection intervals (PMII) regarding the performance and emissions of a diesel engine fueled with J20 biodiesel (20 vol% Jatropha curcas biodiesel + 80 vol% 0# diesel). A four-factor and three-level full factorial design and response surface methodology (RSM)...
This paper analyzes combustion chamber pressure data processing methods related to the number of cycles averaged, top dead center referencing and pressure referencing (pegging). A total of 1000 consecutive engine cycles were measured in a four-cylinder diesel engine. The number of cycles that minimizes the influence of cycle-to-cycle oscillations depends on engine operating conditions and the parameters...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impacts of diesel–biodiesel–alcohol blends on the combustion, performance and emissions characteristics of a single-cylinder diesel engine. Tests were conducted at different engine speeds of 1750, 2250, 2750 and 3250 rpm and under full load. In this study, different fuels [called as reference diesel (D100), 20 vol% cottonseed methyl ester (D80C20), 10 vol%...
