Impact of Simulated Biogas Compositions (CH<sub>4</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub>) on Vibration, Sound Pressure and Performance of a Spark Ignition Engine
Biogas has increasingly been used as an alternative to fossil fuels in the world due to a number of factors, including the availability of raw materials, extensive resources, relatively cheap production and sufficient energy efficiency in internal combustion engines. Tightening environmental and ren...

Biogas has increasingly been used as an alternative to fossil fuels in the world due to a number of factors, including the availability of raw materials, extensive resources, relatively cheap production and sufficient energy efficiency in internal combustion engines. Tightening environmental and renewable energy requirements create excellent prospects for biogas (BG) as a fuel. A study was conducted on a 1.6-L spark ignition (SI) engine (HR16DE), testing simulated biogas with different methane and carbon dioxide contents (100CH<sub>4</sub>, 80CH<sub>4</sub>_20CO<sub>2</sub>, 60CH<sub>4</sub>_40CO<sub>2</sub>, and 50CH<sub>4</sub>_50CO<sub>2</sub>) as fuel. The rate of heat release (ROHR) was calculated for each fuel. Vibration acceleration time, sound pressure and spectrum characteristics were also analyzed. The results of the study revealed which vibration of the engine correlates with combustion intensity, which is directly related to the main measure of engine energy efficiency—break thermal efficiency (BTE).
