AB - In this study, engine performance and emissions effects of ZnFe2O4 and ZnCO3  nanoparticle additives have been investigated in a Diesel engine. The  experiments have been carried out at 600 rpm and different loads (250-380  Nm) in a 11670 cc heavy-duty Diesel engine. Mixtures of additives have been  applied to diesel fuel as 100 ppm. Brake thermal efficiency, cylinder  pressure, and emission values have been tested for all investigated fuel  mixtures. The maximum thermal efficiency values of D-ZnCO3-100 and  D-ZnFe2O4-50 are higher than diesel fuel. Also, CO emission values of  D-ZnCO3-100 and D-ZnFe2O4-50 are obtained as less than diesel fuel.
