Abstract

Performance of an electrical generator using bio-fuel and gasoline blends of different composition as fuel in a single cylinder engine is presented. The effect of an optimized blend ratio of bio-fuel with gasoline on engine performance improvement and thereby on the electrical generator output is studied. The effects of different bio-fuel/gasoline blending ratios are compared experimentally with that of the gasoline alone using the output power developed by the electric generator as the evaluation parameter. Bio-fuels such as ethanol, butanol and methanol are blended with gasoline in different proportions and evaluated for performance. With a composition of 11% ethanol?gasoline, the engine performance is increased up to 7% and with a blending ratio of 21% butanol?gasoline the performance is increased up to 9% compared to the use of 100% gasoline
