The Effect of Compression Ratio on the Performance and Emissions of Internal Combustion Engine Using Oxy Fuels
Abstract: Energy sources are becoming a major issue, with the main concern being cost and continuous supply. The production of oxy fuels is cheap, simple and environmentally friendly, as well as being able to be produced locally, reducing the cost of transporting fuel. Oxy fuels are used as a pure fuel directly in an engine or can be mixed with fossil fuel. The fuels granted under oxy fuels are methanol, ethanol, …

Review on Effect of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) on Performance of Compression Ignition (CI) Engine and Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) Engine
Abstract: Energy conservation is a trending topic in the world. But only saving energy is not the primary aim, there is a need for clean and efficient source of energy to reduce the pollution. Compression ignition engine is the preferred prime movers due to excellent drivability and higher thermal efficiency. Even though it has many advantages, it also has major drawbacks as it produces higher level of NOx and smoke emissions …

Effectiveness of Vegetable oil Based Cutting Fluid (VBCF) with Non-ionic Surfactants in Turning EN8 Steel
Abstract: In the present work, properties of the the non-ionic surfactants have been used to formulate vegetable oil based cutting fluid (VBCF) palm oil for the emulsion as non-conventional lubricant. Tool temperature and surface finish are plays an important indicator of quality in manufacturing industries and thus they are regarded as the most important parameters to be considered. In this present work different machining parameters were taken and their effect on …

Synthesis and Characterization of Biodiesel from Animal Fat
Abstract: Biodiesel, an alternate and ecologically acceptable substitute for the conventional fuel, is usually produced from a wide range of edible vegetable oils, which are normally used for human consumption and whose prices are expected to increase in future. In this regard, reliable and low-cost raw materials have increasingly drawn interest for biodiesel production, such as by-products of the meat processing industries or waste animal fats. In present work biodiesel production …
