Received: 15 February 2018 Accepted: 14 May 2019 This study focused on the computational and parametric research on a single cylinder spark ignition engine using dual-fuel, 100 % gasoline and (10 %, 20 %, 30 %) propane in gasoline on volume basis as an alternative fuel for investigating the performance and emission characteristics of spark ignition engine. The performance parameters Brake power, Torque, Bsfc, and Bmep were examined using Avl Boost software. In addition, the exhaust emissions like nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons were also measured. The (10 %, 20 %, &30 %) of propane in gasoline decreases in power compared to 100 % gasoline, however engine fuelled with 10 %, 20 %, and 30 % propane in gasoline shows reduction in specific fuel consumption. The study investigates the effect of dual-fuel propane and gasoline on a fourstroke single cylinder spark ignition engine. The study was carried out at varying percentage load and varying compression ratio for constant engine speed. The focus of this parametric study tries to investigate the effects of replacing individual gasoline and propane with the optimum mixture of 10 %, 20 %, and 30 % propane in gasoline on volume basis in spark ignition engine in order to improve its performance and emission characteristics.
