Abstract

In this paper an experimental investigation was conducted to study the effect of using different ratios of
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) on the emissions of Carbon Monoxide (CO) from a turbocharged diesel engine.
Tests were carried at different engine speeds, brake power and EGR ratios. The experimental results obtained
showed that the emissions of carbon monoxide are significantly affected by changes in engine speed, EGR ratio and
Brake Power. As a result a simple quantitative correlation which relates CO emissions to engine speed, EGR ratio
and brake power is presented. A reasonable agreement was shown when the measured experimental and predicted
results are compared
