Abstract: In the present situation, the stipulate for energy is escalating according to the growth of population and industrial development. Here, diesel engines are contributing more in power generation due to its reliable and energy efficient phenomenon. However, continuous diminishing of diesel fuel and environmental scenario researchers are trying to find alternative energy sources like biodiesel. In present investigation used the Cotton-seed oil has opted as biodiesel in various blends B5, B10, and B15. The increasing of cotton seed oil in the blend showed an increase of NOX emissions when compared with the pure diesel operation. Here, observed the higher NOX emission for B15 when compared to the other fuel samples. The HC emissions were reduced with the increase of cotton seed oil percentage. The blend 10 showed lower CO2 emissions than the other samples. The peak cylinder pressure 68.2 bar was obtained at 366°crank angle of B10 and a higher heat release rate was found for B5 at 368°crank angle.
