The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the fuel magnetisation on the performance of diesel engine. It has been observed that on magnetisation viscosity of hydrocarbon fuel decreases due to declustering of the Hydrocarbon fuel molecules which results in better atomization of the fuel and efficient combustion of air fuel mixture. This enhances thermal efficiency and improves the fuel economy of I.C engine. The magnetic field applied along the fuel line immediately before fuel injector. The magnetic field of different intensity 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000Gauss is applied with the help of solenoid Electro-magnetic coil and its effect on fuel consumption as well as on exhaust gas emission is studied and compared with performance without application of magnetic field. At different load conditions the experiments are conducted to analyse the fuel consumption, thermal efficiency and exhaust gas analyser is used to measure the exhaust gas emission such a NOX, HC, CO and CO2.

Experimental Inspection by using the Effect of Magnetic Field on the Performance of Diesel Engine
The present work deals with fuel ionization by using magnetic field which will ensure complete combustion of air-fuel mixture. Incomplete combustion in engine is due to improper mixing of hydrocarbon and oxygen molecule. These attempts is made in this work to improve the combustion efficiency of internal combustion engines by adopting a magnetic fuel ionization method in which the fuel is ionized due to the magnetic field. To overcome these issues magnets are used called as Magnetic fuel conditioner. This help to align the orientation of hydrocarbon molecules, for better atomization of fuel. Use of such magnet mounted in path of fuel lines improves mileage & reduces emission of vehicle. These experiments are conducted at different engine loading conditions. The work in particular is very significant on account of its impact on the global automobile market. The magnets help to disperse the hydrocarbon cluster into smaller particles which will improve the efficiency of combustion. This will maximize the combustion of fuel.

Utilization of biodiesel results in lower emissions of hydrocarbons, carbon mono oxide, and smoke. But with the use of biodiesel as fuel emission of Oxides of nitrogen increases along with this some performance parameters also deteriorated. In the present investigation, the fact has been used that, the magnetization of fuels containing hydrocarbon changes the chemical properties as well as orientation and arrangement of molecules of fuel. In this experimental investigation density and calorific values of biodiesel have been determined. In another setup of experimentation on a single-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine, observations are taken with diesel, biodiesel blend containing 20% biodiesel (BD20), and magnetized biodiesel (BD20+MF) as fuel. Results of this investigation show that, the magnetization of biodiesel is not only helpful in increasing performance parameters like brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency but also it helps to control the emissions of c...

Utilization of biodiesel as alternative fuel results in higher emission of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and reduced performance parameters. Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a great technology to control the emission of NOx, but use of EGR reduces the performance parameters of diesel engines. Oxidative addition and magnetization of fuel help to make the combustion complete. In the present investigation, Jatropha biodiesel has been used with diesel in the form of a blend having 20% biodiesel (BD20) as fuel in 4-stroke, direct ignition, diesel engine. 5% Ethanol (E5) has been used as additive along with biodiesel blends and 10% EGR. The magnetization of fuel (MF) has been done with the help of a permanent magnet having strength of 3000 gauss. The results of this investigation show that BD20 is beneficial as fuel for reducing emissions like Carbon Mono-oxide, Hydro-Carbon, and smoke but it reduces Brake Power and Brake Thermal Efficiency. BD20E5 gives better performance parameters than th...

Manufacturing In this work, the energy of electromagnet is used to treat the fuel and airline for reducing the fuel consumption and emissions in four-stroke diesel engine. The experiment comprises Internal Combustion (IC) Engine test rig and electromagnets with different intensities (4500, 6000, 8500 and 10000 gauss), are installed along the honeycomb structured mini channel fuel line and air suction line. Experiments are carried out in four-stroke diesel engine test rig for variable engine load by applying medium strength magnetic field on air and fuel supply line. The medium strength magnetic field is used to improve the atomization process effectively, due to that increment in the rate of disintegration of the droplets, as result the viscosity of the fuel decreases. Because of cohesive force between the fuel molecules are affected by the magnetic field and it leads to less surface tension force effect, thus helps to improve atomization process.

The impacts of strengthening magnetic field exposure on combustion performance of low-octane fuel have been examined experimentally. The combustion test was carried out using a 2-stroke 49 cc engine where the fuel was magnetized using a low magnetic field (<2 kG). Moreover, the molecular behavior of magnetized fuel was also characterized through spectrum tests using NIR and UV-Vis spectrophotometers. The result of this study indicates an exponential decrease of magnetized fuel consumption against the strengthening of magnetic field exposure. This exponential decrease of consumption can be related to the Arrhenius principle. In addition, the decrease of oxygen in the exhaust gas along with the strengthening of the magnetic field also confirms the increase of combustion reactions. Meanwhile, the increase of magnetized fuel absorption against ultraviolet and near-infrared lights along with the increase of the magnetic field intensity indicates a bond weakening, accompanied by the in...
