Application of Advanced Simulation Methods and Their Combination with Experiments to Modeling of Hydrogen Fueled Engine Emission Potentials

The paper deals with an application of advanced simulation methods to modeling of hydrogen fueled engines. Two models have been applied – 0-D algorithm and CFD. The 0-D model has been based on GT-Power code. The CFD model has been based on Advanced Multizone Eulerian Model representing general method of finite volume. The influence of main engine parameters, e.g. air excess, spark timing, compression ratio, on NOx formation and engine efficiency has been investigated. Both models have been calibrated with experimental data. Examples of results and comparison with experiments are shown. The means of reducing NOx formation are discussed.
