ABSTRACT
The article presents an analysis of the possibility of using DME fuel to power internal combustion engines. The possibilities of using DME as an engine fuel in relation to world and European achievements have been widely discussed. Moreover, the preliminary results of the tests determining the possibility of using the DME-LPG mixture to power the diesel engine are presented. The research consisted in determining the influence of the DME-LPG mixture on the power and torque of the engine at various loads. The changes in the temperature of the exhaust gases were also determined in relation to the different proportions of DME in the mixture
