Impact of Cold and Hot Exhaust Gas Recirculation on Diesel Engine

Today most of the transport vehicles in countries like India where cost effective is the predominant criteria utilize diesel engines rather than petrol engines. From past 5 years usage of diesel engines was rapid which can be addressed from the sales report of many automobile companies. The reason behind this could be cost of diesel fuel and efficiency of the diesel engine when compared to petrol engine. But when we look on the worse side of diesel engine, emissions from diesel engine are high especially NOx. So there is a need for a technique which could reduce the emissions without affecting the performance of engine. One such technique could be Exhaust gas recirculation. Present paper aims to find the impact of cold and hot EGR on emissions of diesel engine.
