Abstract This study investigates the reduction of emissions of a single-cylinder diesel engine fueled with diesel and Di-tetra-butyl peroxide blends by altering the engine load from 1.1 to 5.5 kW with three repetitions. The objective of the study is to investigate DTBP as an ignition improver and to diminish the emission level of a diesel engine. Two concentrations of DTBP (10 and 20% by volume) were blended with Diesel. The observed physic-chemical properties met the standards. As per the emission fronts, CO and HC lowered for DTBP10D90 and DTBP20D80 at all loads. Smoke and NOX emissions lowered depending upon the DTBP concentration.

柴油机点火改进剂效果的排放研究

摘要 本研究通过将发动机负载从 1.1 kW 更改为 5.5 kW 并重复三次，研究了以柴油和二四丁基过氧化物混合物为燃料的单缸柴油发动机的排放量减少情况。该研究的目的是研究 DTBP 作为点火改进剂并降低柴油发动机的排放水平。两种浓度的 DTBP（10% 和 20% 体积）与柴油混合。观察到的理化性质符合标准。根据排放前沿，DTBP10D90 和 DTBP20D80 在所有负载下的 CO 和 HC 均降低。烟气和氮氧化物排放量根据 DTBP 浓度降低。
