Performance of diesel engine using hydrogen as a fuel

Among the alternative fuels, hydrogen shows great potential in the near future. In the present study, hydrogen utilization as diesel engine fuel was investigated. Hydrogen cannot be used directly in a diesel engine due to its autoignition temperature higher than that of diesel fuel. One alternative...
