Engine performance and exhaust gas characteristics of a direct injection CI engine were investigated with neat dimethyl-ether (DME), an alternative fuel being considered for attaining low emissions. The study was conducted by comparing with conventional gas oil. Results from the present work include : (1) It was necessary to add a small amount of lubricating additives to DME for achieving satisfactory engine operation, to minimize some excessive wear in the injection nozzle. (2) Engine performance for both fuels were comparable. (3) Although negligible amounts of soot ane very low THC emissions were measured, NO_x emission was about the same as in gas-oil operation. (4) The reduction of NO_x emission by retarding the injection timing was highly significant with DME. (5) The NO_x emission from the retrofited engine could be further reduced by dissolving CO_2 in DME.
