A study of bioethanol fuel characteristics in the combustion chamber of gasoline engine using magnetization technology
Abstract
Several researchers have investigated biofuel characteristics. They reported that adding bioethanol would improve engine performance. M. K. Akasyah et al. [15] reported that increasing the combustion temperature will increase the combustion pressure that caused the fuel to burn more quickly and increase engine performance. Increasing combustion temperature caused the fuel viscosity decrease that can be easily mixed with oxygen. Hence the fuel can burn perfectly and increase thermal efficiency. Osman Azmi Ozsoysal [16] studied the Otto cycle model and reported that a fraction of the fuel’s chemical energy is not fully released inside the engine during the actual combustion process because of the incomplete combustion.
