The increasing industrialization and motorization of the world has led to a steep rise for the demand of petroleum products. Petroleum based fuels are obtained from the limited reserves. These finite reserves are highly concentrated in certain regions of the world. Therefore, those countries not having petroleum resources are facing a foreign exchange crisis, mainly due to the import of crude oil. A single cylinder (5hp), four stroke, constant speed, water cooled, direct injection diesel engine retrofitted with a shell and tube heat exchanger was typically used in the experiments. The acquired engine datas were analyzed for performance and emission parameters such as Brake thermal efficiency (BTE), brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), Brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) and concentration of polluting gases in exhaust like CO, CO2, HC and NOx.
