Abstract
This paper presents experimental studies carried out to investigate the effect of diethyl ether on the properties of gasoline-ethanol blends. The solubility of ethyl alcohol of different dehydration degrees in gasoline and stability of gasoline-ethanol blends was studied. It is shown that higher degree of dehydration provide better stability of gasoline-ethanol blends. The anti-knock properties of ethanol-containing gasolines with different content of ethanol and diethyl ether additive was studied. The synergistic effect of anhydrous ethanol/diethyl ether mixtures on the properties of composite gasoline is shown. A mathematical model for calculating the octane number of gasoline-ethanol-diethyl ether blends has been developed. Amounts of some exhaust gases emission of gasoline and ethanol-containing fuels were studied experimentally and compared.
