Abstract:
Hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine (H
2ICE) is an effective way to use hydrogen as a future energy carrier. Since the power density of the natural aspirated port fuel injection H
2ICE is lower than that of traditional internal combustion engine, turbo charging system technology is significant to increase the power output of H
2ICE. Based on a CNG engine with displacement of 9.73 L, the turbo charging H
2ICE model was built to deal with the turbo charging match problems. On this basis, H
2ICE turbo charging matching and optimization of compression ratio and intake valve opening timing were accomplished. The results of performance prediction show that the maximum torque of turbocharged H
2ICE is 890 N·m, which is two times of the natural aspirated H
2ICE. The efficiency is improved by 7%~15% and the specific emission of NO
x tends to decrease.
