dc.description.abstractIn the present work, an attempt was made to use methyl ester of mahua oil (MEMO) as substitute for dieselin dual fuel engine. A four stroke single cylinder engine was modified to work in dual fuel mode. From the test results, it was observed that the MEMO could be used as pilot fuel in dual fuel engine. At lower loads, diesel gave higher brake thermal efficiency. But at higher loads, biodiesel resulted in brake thermal efficiency comparable with diesel and lower smoke and oxides of nitrogen emissions. From the test results, it was concluded that MEMO could be used as a substitute for diesel in dual fuel engine.en_US
