A single-cylinder petrol engine with a swept volume of 500°Cm3 has a compression ratio of 9.5:1. As part of an engine conversion, the clearance volume is decreased to 50°Cm3. Calculate: the new compression ratio.in both cases, the gauge pressure of the air in the cylinder at the end of the compression stroke if the initial pressure is 1.016 bar ABS and the index of compression is 1.35.

Owing to the increasing consumption of diesel fuel and emissions, the possible way to meet the emission norms and future energy demands is the use of alternative fuels. By considering the benefits of alternative fuels as discussed above, it seems to be the only viable option to meet the emission norms and future energy demands. Single cylinder direct injection engines are generally used for agricultural and constructional purposes. The ANN model to predict the performance and emission characteristics of Mahua oil-Hydrogen dual fuel engine is uninvestigated. Hence, an effort is made to fulfil this gap. The properties of the test fuel are tabulated in Table 1.

Single cylinder diesel engines find several applications in farm machinery, agricultural purposes and small-scale power generation sector to run the back-up units in case of power cuts etc. The engines used in these applications fall under small power category which produces upto 15 hp power and are generally manufactured locally. Therefore, this area is still unfamiliar with the advantages of CRDi technology. The main aim of this work was to explore the effects of a combination of higher FIPs and retarded SITs on various combustion, performance and emission parameters of a single cylinder diesel engine at constant speed under varying engine loads.
