Abstract:
Ethanol has the potential to be used as S. I. engine fuel as it improve engine efficiency and reduce harmful emissions when used as fuel in a spark-ignition engine. Ethanol is mostly supplied in a splash-blended form with gasoline. This study investigate ethanol as an S. I. engine fuel and the effect of using ethanol blended gasoline as fuel on engine performance and emission characteristics. Petroleum products with the current consumption rate will be depleting in upcoming decades. Ethanol usage in the transport sector can fulfill the requirement, hence it is better to develop the engine which can work on pure ethanol or add ethanol in the petrol and use blends of that. This paper’s aim was to study the effect of ethanol/and blends on Spark Ignition (SI) engine behavior. This study concludes that ethanol blending is lowering exhaust emissions with considerable improvement in the performance of the SI engine and also promising as a future fuel which can successfully replace petrol and its depletion problem.
