The diesel engine fuelled by direct injection with DEE and biodiesel mix of Citronella oil is observed for performance and emission. The properties of Citronella biodiesel fuel are observed and blended with diesel fuel in diversed ratio. Also the experiments were conducted with and without Diethyl Ether additive. As the citronella is available crop all over the globe and especially in India, the source would be perennial. Based on the experimental result, graphs were plotted to indicate the performance and it is found that the emission of carbon monoxide (CO), Carbon dioxide (CO2), Oxides of nitrogen (NOx), Unburnt hydrocarbons (HC) and smoke were less compare with base fuel. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
