A comprehensive and authoritative resource for the development of hydrogen-specific internal combustion engines

Hydrogen Engines: Design, Performance Evaluation, Combustion Analysis, and Exhaust Emissions, authored by Dr. Lalit Mohan Das, a seasoned alternative fuels researcher, offers an in-depth technical description of hydrogen as a fuel, presenting a balanced analysis of hydrogen's advantages and challenges. The book covers hydrogen's performance, emissions, combustion, and safety aspects for both spark ignition (SI) engines and compression ignition (CI) engines. A comprehensive source of information on the design requirements for hydrogen-specific engines, the book compiles the technical guidelines typically found only in research papers scattered amongst the scientific literature.

In Hydrogen Engines, readers will also find:

  • A thorough consideration of the distinctive properties of hydrogen, such as minimum ignition energy, flammability limit, and flame speed, and their influence on undesirable combustion phenomena, such as pre-ignition, backfire and knocking
  • Comprehensive explorations of the modes of utilization of hydrogen in internal combustion engines, neat hydrogen engines, dual fuel, and hydrogen in blends with other fuels, such as CNG, LPG, Alcohols, Biogas, Biodiesel, DME producer gas, etc.
  • Upgraded strategies such as supercharging, turbocharging, stratification, HCCI, RCCI, and rotary engine configuration using hydrogen fuel
  • Application of laser diagnostics and other sensing techniques
  • NOx formation and exhaust emission control, lean engine operations, and exhaust gas recirculation
  • A detailed description of how to mitigate hydrogen's challenges to develop efficient, low-emission engines and prototype real-world vehicles.

Invaluable for researchers in academia and government labs, the book will also benefit policymakers and engineers working in research and development within the automotive and transportation industries.

L.M. Das, PhD, is Former Professor and Emeritus Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology - Delhi, India. With teaching and research experience spanning more than four decades, he has taught and supervised master's projects and doctoral theses, developed laboratories, and served as consultant and principal investigator on hydrogen and alternative fuels projects sponsored by India's Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, the Department of Science and Technology, UNIDO, the European Union, Shell Research Ltd., and General Motors Research Labs (USA).
