19th June 2006 SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF H2 IN RESPECT OF THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE • Wide ignition range (with air) generates unwanted mixture ignitions • Low ignition energy generates unwanted mixture ignitions • High self-ignition temperature means high octane number (> 130) • High flame speed means high combustion temperature i.e. high NOx emissions • Low mixture H2/air density means low engine specific power • Low H2 density make critical all the seals of engine • High burn rates mean high heat losses 6
19th June 2006 Effect on the stored amount of energy on board of a natural gas vehicle, as a function of hydrogen content in the natural gas, with gas blend stored at 20 Mpa and 288K. 7
