Can you use hydrogen in a diesel engine?
The diesel engine with direct injection of hydrogen gas has clear advantages over the hydrogen engine with forced ignition of a hydrogen-air mixture.
Can a diesel engine run on HHO?
The maximum efficiency observed for the engine running on HHO–diesel mixture is 24.24\%. The maximum efficiency observed for diesel is 20.8\%. Hence, HHO has increased the maximum efficiency by 3.4\%.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using hydrogen instead of petrol in car engines?
These include:
- hydrogen is in the gas state at room temperature and pressure, so it is difficult to store in the car.
- fuel cells and electric motors are less durable than petrol engines and diesel engines, so they are not so long-lasting.
- fuel cells are very expensive.
Can a diesel engine run on hydrogen fuel?
Diesel engines will run anything that’s is a liquid or a gas but like always you will need a fuel specific injection system. Injectors made for diesel #2 are notoriously sensitive to the lubrication properties of the fuel, and hydrogen has none.
What are the disadvantages of a hydrogen engine?
There are two major problems with a hydrogen internal combustion engine. First, hydrogen is not as energy-dense as other fuels, meaning that you need a whole lot of it to do a little bit of work.
Can hydrogen be used as a fuel for piston engines?
Fenske has been exploring hydrogen’s possibilities in multiple videos already this month, both as a fuel for piston engines and rotary engines. There are two major problems with a hydrogen internal combustion engine. First, hydrogen is not as energy-dense as other fuels, meaning that you need a whole lot of it to do a little bit of work.
Is hydhydrogen a viable alternative fuel?
Hydrogen is a tempting alternative fuel. When burned correctly, its only emission is water vapor. Fenske has been exploring hydrogen’s possibilities in multiple videos already this month, both as a fuel for piston engines and rotary engines. There are two major problems with a hydrogen internal combustion engine.
