Abstract

This article has focused on essential oils as alternative fuels and fuel additives. The essential oil is obtained from Salvia Candidissima plant. While a Clevenger type apparatus was used to determine the oil yield of Salvia Candidissima plant, a retort was produced for the bulk oil to be used in the experiments. The compounds of the obtained oil were determined by Gas chromatography / Mass spectrometry (GC / MS) and the essential oil was converted into biofuel. The produced biofuel was added 5% by volume to the reference diesel fuel (DF) and mixed fuel (SB-5) was formed. Later, SB-5 and DF fuels were tested at 1500 fixed cycles and different loads, and emission and combustion data were obtained. As a result of the experiment, effective decreases in Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Hydrocarbon (HC) emissions and increases in NOx emissions were observed with SB-5 fuel mixture. In addition, higher combustion data were obtained with SB-5 fuel mixture than DF fuel.

Yeni bir biyodizel kaynağı olarak uçucu yağların dizel motorlarda kullanılabilirliğinin araştırılması

Abstract

Bu makale, alternatif yakıt ve yakıt katkı maddesi olarak uçucu yağlar üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır. Uçucu yağ Salvia Candidissima, bitkisinden elde edilmiştir. Salvia Candidissima, bitkisinin yağ verimini belirlemek için Clevenger tipi bir aparat kullanılırken, deneylerde kullanılacak kütlesel yağ için imbik imal edilmiştir. Elde edilen yağın bileşikleri Gaz kromatografisi / Kütle spektrometresi (GC / MS) ile belirlenmiş ve uçucu yağ biyoyakıta dönüştürülmüştür. Üretilen biyoyakıt referans dizel yakıtına (DF) hacimsel olarak % 5 ilave edilmiş ve karışım yakıt (SB-5) oluşturulmuştur. Daha sonra, SB-5 ve DF yakıtları 1500 sabit devirde ve farklı yüklerde test edilmiş, emisyon ve yanma verileri alınmıştır. Deney sonucunda SB-5 karışım yakıtı ile Karbonmonoksit (CO) ve Hidrokarbon (HC) emisyonlarında etkili düşüşler, NOx emisyonlarında artışlar gözlemlenmiştir. Ayrıca SB-5 yakıt karışımı ile DF yakıtından daha yüksek yanma verileri elde edilmiştir.
