About this document

Pumpkin Oil Methyl Ester in Diesel Engines by Prakash Ramakrishnan is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes an experimental study on the combustion, performance, and emission characteristics of a diesel engine fueled with pumpkin oil methyl ester (POME) and its blends with diesel. The study found that POME and its blends had shorter ignition delays, higher brake thermal efficiencies, and lower emissions of smoke, CO, and particulate matter compared to diesel. POME and blends up to 50% POME performed comparably to diesel in terms of heat release rates, cylinder pressures, and rates of press
