This paper describes an experimental study of using Cotton seed oil as a fuel in diesel engine. In this study the effect of using polymer oil – renewable oil (cotton sees oil) blends (PC5,PC15) on the engine performance, exhaust emission have been experimentally investigated. This present work deals with 5% renewable oil (cotton seed oil) and 90% polymer oil called PC5, 15 % renewable oil (cotton seed oil) and 85% polymer oil called PC15% were used in single cylinder four stroke, water cooled diesel engine. The experimental result showed that the carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and exhaust gas temperature were significantly reduced.Oxides of nitrogen, Brake specific fuel consumption was increased and also brake thermal efficiency were found to have increased with polymer oil– renewable oil (cotton seed oil) blends.
