THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT INTAKE AIR FILTERS ON DI DIESEL ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Keywords:
DI Diesel Engine, Intake Air Filters, Performance & emissions.Abstract
The role of an efficient air filter in an engine setup has increased mainly due to
stringent emission regulations. The air contains lots of impurities with different sizes which by
entering into the engine will cause many adverse effects to its working and performance. The DI
diesel engine is operated by adopting different air filters with varied sizes, models and filtering
materials. The experimental results are recorded and analyzed. This Paper deals with the discussion
on the engine performance, combustion and exhaust characteristics. When operated with different air
filters (viz., AFM1, AFM2, AFM3 and AFM4). Simulation is also carried out and the experimental
results are compared with them for validation
