Abstract :
Nowadays, the noise emissions caused by the diesel engines, which is widely used, constitute the adverse effects on the living organisms for both long and short-term. In this study, the single cylinder diesel engine power, torque and noise emissions were experimentally investigated for the fuel mixture which was a canola oil methyl ester with the standard diesel fuel. The torque, power values, the noise emissions were compared when canola oil methyl ester, which was mixed with the standard diesel fuel at the rate of 0%, 20%, 40%, was subjected to the full load, different speed test. It was observed that the engine torque, power and noise emissions were decreased as the rate of canola oil methyl ester increased in the the standard diesel fuel.
