Abstract

In the article presented were research results on effects of ignition advance angle change on shape of open and closed indicator graphs for a Honda NXH 110 engine powered by alternative fuels, i.e. E85, CNG, biogas and Pb95 petrol. Presented as well was the effect of ignition advance angle on mechanical power and torque figures produced by the engine. The research measurements were performed for engine under full load, on an engine test stand located at Faculty of Automotive and Construction Machinery Engineering, Warsaw university of Technology. Furthermore, the effects of ignition advance angle change on engine’s indicated work was presented.
