Abstract

The use of fossil fuels is increasing day by day and it results into increasing pollution, to decrease the use of
fossil fuels the use of alternative fuel is the good option. Palm seed oil is the oil which can be used as alternative fuel.
The properties of both blends were estimated. The result showed that the fuel properties of the blends were very close to
the diesel. There are many other oils available like waste plastic oil, jatropha, neem etc. so to reduce pollution, alternate
fuel can be used as substitute. Three parameters compression ratio, load, and blend are variance and response like
specific fuel consumption optimize completely. The experiments include use of palm seed oil blend such as 100D0B
(100% Diesel 0% palm seed oil), 50D50B (50% Diesel 50% palm seed oil), 0D100B (0% Diesel and 100% palm seed
oil) at different compression ratio. For mathematical and statistical analysis Taguchi’s method is used.
