ABSTRACT
In many countries around the world, internal combustion engines are still used in transport and other sectors. The search for alternative fuels continues because the environmental damage caused by exhaust emissions increases with the length of time combustion engines are used. On the other hand, the depletion of oil resources and the increase in fuel prices are causing economic problems. In this study, 10% linseed biodiesel was blended with diesel fuel used in a single-cylinder internal combustion diesel engine, and its effects on the engine characteristics were investigated. According to the results obtained from the experiments, it was observed that linseed biodiesel added to diesel caused a slight increase in carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbon levels in exhaust emissions, while engine power and fuel consumption remained almost at the same level. It is expected that these results from the experiments will contribute to the evaluation of various studies on biodiesel in the future.
