Project Description

Utilisation of hydrogen gas mixtures as means of controlling engine exhaust emissions through combustion improvements or aftertreatment systems enhanced performance. Experimental study using fully equipped engine test rigs and/or optical constant volume combustion chamber with optical diagnostics techniques. Addition of hydrogen to the engine combustion chamber and/or the exhaust gas has the potential to provide efficient control of gaseous and particulate emissions of engines fuelled with conventional or alternative fuels. The project will aim to explore optimal hydrogen addition to the engine or aftertreatment system so that the emissions will be reduced over the full range of engine operating conditions.
