We are One of the inconsumable oils that could be used to produce green fuel is Tamanu oil. It is derived from Tamanu green plant seeds. This research describes about the features, analysis that have been performed by an empirical study on using Tamanu oil as a raw material to generate green fuel in diesel engine. The green fuel Tamanu Methyl Ester Tamanu100 and its blends Tamanu30 and Tamanu60 are used in engine to test the efficiency of the fuel. The characteristics of the engine that are impacted such as brake thermal efficiency, brake specific energy consumption, unburned hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, and release of NO X have been measured using Tamanu100 green fuel and the output of the tests have been contrasted with conventional fuel. It is noted that the green fuel resulted in trivial reduction in brake thermal efficiency. Release of hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide has lessened on using green fuel with substantial release of oxides of nitrogen. Also, the ignition characteristics such as cylinder gas pressure, ignition delay period have been detailed. The output from the experiments has been contrasted with conventional diesel fuel by applying various load conditions.
