The study approach of this paper is to combine experiment and simulation on using butanol as fuel in gasoline engine. First, experiments were performed under full load on a single cylinder spark ignition engine fueled with 35%vol butanol–gasoline blend and the pure gasoline, respectively. The...

In this study, experiments were conducted on a single-cylinder high speed SI (spark ignition) engine fueled with 30 and 35%vol butanol/gasoline blends and compared to the pure gasoline. This research is trying to find out the common principles about the influence on combustion heat release of...
