Influence of nanocatalyst in the performance of direct injection CI engine using blends of castor oil

As day by day there is technological development seen all around the world, the research work is progressing but the resources involved in them are depleting rapidly. The demand of resources and fuels for the technological development is increasing day by day. In order to keep the pace of development high we need to think about some alternate fuel with better efficiency which would help overcome the demand keeping in mind the resources for the future generation. An alternate fuel needs to be developed and researched upon which could help us get greener and better tomorrow. In this paper I would like to highlight upon the usage of Diesel, Castor Oil and Nano Particles for a compression ignition engine and study the performance characteristics of this fuel at different mixing ratios.
