This study was carried out aiming the performance
assessment of a power
generation set using a renewable fuel, the crude palm oil.
It was investigated, in
laboratory, the performance of a diesel generating set of
3 kVA, supplying power to a
load composed of 16 light bulbs of 150kW. The performance
of the engine was
evaluated with the use of the crude palm oil, having as
reference the performance of
the same generating set using the diesel oil. Given the
high viscosity of the chosen
fuel, its preheating was necessary so that this property
was similar to the diesel
oil.The emissions of pollutants of the engine using the
vegetal oil were less than that
with the engine using diesel oil. However, the specific
fuel consumption of the engine
using crude palm oil was greater that the specific fuel
consumption using the oil
diesel. Moreover, the average power generated with palm
oil was equal to the power
generated with diesel oil. The performance of the engine
was evaluated with the use
of the palm oil, having as reference the performance of
the same generating group
using the diesel oil. The results indicate that it is
possible to substitute the diesel oil
by the renewable oil.
