Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this study is to experimentally analyze the performance and the pollutant emissions of a four-stroke spark-ignition engine operating on natural gas–hydrogen blends of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% at full load and 65% load for different excess air ratios. This present work was carried out on a Ford engine. This is a four-stroke cycle four-cylinder spark-ignition engine with a bore × stroke of 80.6 × 88 mm and a compression ratio of 10:1. Experiments were made at a constant engine speed of 2000 rpm. CO, CO 2 and HC emission values and cylinder pressures were measured. The results showed that while the excess air ratio increases, CO and CO 2 emission values decrease.
