Data set for effect of cetane enhancer on ceramic coated diesel engine fuelled with neat Moringa oleifera methyl ester

The present data article is based on the research work which investigates the effect of cetane enhancer on thermally coated engine fuelled with Moringa oleifera methyl ester (MOME). In this experimental work, Kirloskar TV1 model direct injection water cooled diesel engine with eddy current dynamometer was used. MOME was produced by two-stage transesterification process. The physio-chemical properties of Moringa oleifera methyl ester (MOME) were analysed based on American Standards for Testing Materials (ASTM) standards and data's were presented. Further, the fuel properties were enhanced with the addition of 1% of cetane enhancer (namely Pyrogallol) to MOME and data's related to improved fuel properties were presented. Engine was loaded from minimum load to maximum load using eddy current dynamometer. The combustion chamber components such as piston head, cylinder head and intake and exhaust valves were coated with Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) to transfigure the normal engine into low heat rejection engine. Engine tail pipe emissions were determined using AVL, Austria make 444 di-gas analyser and AVL, Austria make 437C smoke meter equipment. Data related to fuel samples like diesel, MOME with and without Cetane enhancer in normal and ceramic engines were presented.
