Combustibles alternativos en motores de combustión interna

Abstract

Diesel. Los resultados de la medición de los parámetros fueron analizados y se concluyó que un mayor contenido de biocombustible en las mezclas produce leve efecto en los valores de los parámetros del motor.

The ope-rational parameters of an internal combustion engine were measured by means of a parasitic current brake and auxiliary equipment. Tests were made with blends of gasoline-carburetting alcohol in an Otto cycle engine; and with blends of fuel oil-biodiesel, in a Diesel cycle engine. The results of the measurement of the parameters were analyzed, and the conclusion was that a higher concentration of biofuel in blends produces slight effect in the engine parameter values.
