As a possible solution for the run out of fossil fuel resources and the climate warming caused by the CO2 emission, the fuel with the content of vegetable oil has been used in our studies as an alternative fuel for light oil. However, operating the diesel engine with vegetable oils, results in increased NOx emissions as compared with the case of light oil. So, this study has been carried out to examine the influence of composition of blend of fuels on combustion characteristics and exhaust emissions in small diesel engine. The blends of light diesel oil and coconut oil with water were used. The range of blend ratio of coconut oil in light diesel oil was 0 to 20 vol %. The content of water in fuel was 0 to 20 by mass %. The maximum burning pressure and total burning time were observed by measuring the pressure with piezoelectric Kistler pressure transducer. The main conclusions are as follows: 1) The maximum burning pressure for water emulsion oil is smaller than that of light oil. 2) NOx emission of light fuel with coconut oil is higher than that of light oil.3) It is possible to improve the combustion behavior by using blend fuels for small diesel engines.
