Influence of diesel engine fuelling with faee and FAME on stream spray and ignition delay angels

The paper presents results of examinations concerning stream spray and ignition delay angles of AD3.152 engine fuelled with mineral fuel Ekodiesel Plus 50B and comparatively fuelled with vegetable fuels like methyl ester FAME and ethyl ester FAEE. Using fuels of different physicochemical properties to diesel engines requires high accuracy of diagnostic parameters measurements in order to learn differences in processes of injection and combustion. Necessity of fulfilling more and more strong standards, concerning emission of toxic components of exhaust gases, forces users of diesel engines to posses quick and precision methods of their technical state assessment and particularly of a combustion process and of injection equipment technical state. Analysis of the obtained diagrams of fuel pressure in the injection pipe enables to determine fuel pressure increase rate. The investigations were carried out on the basis of speed external characteristic using test stand equipped with system of quick-changeable pressures measurements. Stream spray of fuel and ignition delay angles influence combustion process what is connected with emission of toxic components to environment. However, decay period time tested fuels and their limits appeared smaller for vegetable fuels. Considering the results, it is therefore decide to continue our experiments.
