    This document outlines an experimental investigation of the effect of varying the viscosity of castor oil-diesel blends on the performance and emission characteristics of a single cylinder compression ignition engine. The project will study parameters like brake specific fuel consumption, brake power, thermal efficiency, volumetric efficiency, mechanical efficiency, unburnt hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide when running the engine on different blend ratios. It lists the required equipment like the test engine, esterification setup, fuels, emission analyzers and inventory. It also provides the engine specifications and concludes with a literature review related to castor oil and its properties as a fuel.
