The present data article is centered on the research work which examines the effect of fuel preheating on DI diesel engine fuelled with Fish Oil Ethyl Ester (FOEE). Kirloskar TV1 model water cooled diesel engine with eddy current dynamometer was used in the experiment. Crude fish oil was converted into FOEE using transesterification process. The physical and chemical properties of FOEE were examined based on American Standards for Testing Materials (ASTM) biodiesel standards and data's were offered. To achieve better engine characteristics, a fuel preheater was designed and fabricated to work at different temperatures (60, 70 and 80 °C). Fuel preheating temperatures were achieved using three different shell and tube heat exchanger at various dimensions. Heat exchanger was designed to work with waste heat obtained from the engine exhaust. Engine tailpipe emission was recorded using AVL make 444 di-gas analyzer and smoke was measured using AVL make 437C free accelerometer smoke meter. Data related to fuel samples like neat diesel, FOEE blends with and without fuel preheating were presented.
本数据文章围绕一项研究工作展开，该研究考察了燃料预热对以鱼油乙酯（FOEE）为燃料的直喷式柴油发动机的影响。实验中使用了配备涡流测功机的柯罗斯卡TV1型水冷柴油发动机。通过酯交换工艺将粗鱼油转化为FOEE。基于美国材料与试验协会（ASTM）生物柴油标准对FOEE的物理和化学性质进行了检测，并提供了相关数据。为了获得更好的发动机性能，设计并制造了一种燃料预热器，使其能在不同温度（60、70和80°C）下工作。利用三种不同尺寸的壳管式热交换器实现燃料预热温度。热交换器设计为利用发动机废气产生的废热运行。使用AVL 444型双气体分析仪记录发动机尾气排放，并使用AVL 437C型自由加速烟度计测量烟度。给出了与燃料样本相关的数据，如纯柴油、有无燃料预热的FOEE混合燃料。
