摘要
Oxygenated fuels are known to reduce particulate matter(PM)emissions from diesel engines.In this study,100%soy methyl ester(SME)biodiesel fuel(B100)and a blend of 10%acetal denoted by A-diesel with diesel fuel were tested as oxygenated fuels.Particle size and number distributions from a diesel engine fueled with oxygenated fuels and base diesel fuel were measured using an Electrical Low Pressure Impactor(ELPI).Measurements were made at ten steady-state operational modes of various loads at two engine speeds.It was found that the geometric mean diameters of particles from SME and Adiesel were lower than that from base diesel fuel.Compared to diesel fuel,SME emitted more ultra-fine particles at rated speed while emitting less ultra-fine particles at maximum speed.Ultra-fine particle number concentrations of A-diesel were much higher than those of base diesel fuel at most test modes.
