Abstract :The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect on diesel engine performance, exhaust emission and combustion characteristics of canola oil biodiesel. The biodiesel was blended with petroleum-based diesel fuel insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(DF); by 10% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(B10);, 20% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(B20); and 50% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(B50); volumetrically. Engine tests were carried out on a direct injection, single-cylinder, compression ignition engine at different engine loads and the results were compared with the reference DF. The results showed that the maximum cylinder pressure and heat release rate values of DF were higher than those of the biodiesel blends at all engine loads. The addition of biodiesel to DF increased the brake specific fuel consumption insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BSFC); and decreased the brake thermal efficiency insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BTE); at all engine loads. In addition, biodiesel blends caused a slight increase in nitrogen oxide insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(NO x ); emissions while causing a decrease in smoke opacity and carbon monoxide insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CO); emissions.Keywords : Biodiesel, canola oil, diesel engine, combustion
