This study explores the effects of ethanol blending on the performance and emissions of a compression ignition (CI) engine using both diesel and biodiesel as base fuels. Motivated by increasing environmental concerns regarding pollutant emissions from conventional diesel engines, ethanol was introduced as an oxygenated additive to improve combustion characteristics and reduce the formation of harmful exhaust emissions. Ethanol’s high oxygen content promotes more complete combustion, potentially lowering carbon-based emissions such as carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matter (PM), and unburned hydrocarbons. In this study, performance and emission parameters were simulated using Diesel-RK software at various engine speeds of 1500, 2000, …

This research focuses on investigating the thermal-fluid-solid coupling behavior within spiral bevel gears to enhance the bearing capacity and extend the operational service life of the gear reducer located in the helicopter tail gearbox. The study commences by constructing detailed, parametrically defined threedimensional digital models. These models accurately represent the critical components: the spiral bevel gear itself, the surrounding gearbox housing, and the supporting gear shaft, based directly on the specifications of an actual helicopter tail reducer assembly. Subsequently, the analysis proceeds with a one-way, steadystate thermal-solid coupling simulation performed on the established model assembly. This critical simulation phase aims …
