DINZA VERDECIA, Dignora de las Mercedes et al. Evaluation of a mixture of jatropha oil-diesel under the action of a magnetic field. Energética [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.1  Epub 01-Jan-2020. ISSN 1815-5901.

In this work the behavior of the combustion process of mixture of diesel- Jatropha curcas oil at 10% under the action of a magnetic field was evaluated. The mixture and diesel showed similar physicochemical properties. To carry out the experiments, an experimental generator set Lister Petter LPWS2 was used and the following parameters were evaluated: carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOX) emissions and hourly fuel consumption. The static magnetic field used was 0.36 Tesla (T) and was located directly on the fuel lines in the engine. With the use of this magnetic field, decreases of 24.84% of CO, 15.78% of CO2 and 20.43% of NOX were reached in their maximum loads. In addition, reductions in the hourly fuel consumption of 2.59% were obtained, using the mixture under the action of the magnetic field.
