Due to environmental concerns, the use of alternative fuel is rapidly expanding around the world, making it imperative to fully understand the impacts of diesel on pollutant formation. The aim of this work is to increase the engine performance with reduced emissions using diesel blends from different feed stocks and to compare that with the diesel. In the Indian context linseed can play an important role in the production of alternative fuel using diesel. The climatic and soil conditions of India are convenient for the production of linseed crop. The blend is prepared from diesel, linseed oil and Leishman‘s solution by stirring process. The performance study of a diesel engine with these diesel blends were carried out at different compression ratios and loads. The combustion performance parameters like Mechanical, Volumetric, Brake thermal efficiencies and Specific Fuel Consumption are all noted. By applying Grey Relation Analysis, the best running condition for the engine within the chosen range are decided. The sample containing 95% diesel with 3% linseed oil and 2% solution gives better performance at a compression ratio of 18 during high load conditions.
