Abstract

The concept of water addition to the IC engine has been around for over 50 years. This review of research
targets comparing effect of water addition by fumigation, direct injection and emulsion. Fumigation shows simplest
technique to introduce water in combustion chamber, with minimum modification in engine setup. Direct water injection
require major modification but suitable for variable load condition, emulsion shows most promising technique compare
to other two with advantage of microexplosion phenomena. Water–diesel emulsion results in higher ignition delays, peak
pressures and rates of pressure rise. , higher potential of simultaneous reduction of NO and smoke emissions at all loads
compare to other methods.
