A quantity of 10 per cent dimethyl ether (DME) was added to diesel fuel, and an investigation of the performance of a direct injection (DI) diesel engine fuelled with blend fuel was carried out. The test results showed that, in comparison with diesel operation, the torque at low engine speed was increased; the brake specific fuel consumption (b.s.f.c.) with speed characteristics at full load was reduced by 20 g/kW h on average; the smoke was reduced significantly, and the coeffcient of light absorption of smoke decreased by 50 per cent; the NOx and HC emissions were also clearly reduced, and the CO emission was at the same level as that of a diesel engine.
