Abstract

In order to avoid the abnormal combustion in high-power hydrogen engine, a 3D CFD numerical model of a direct-injection spark-ignition hydrogen engine was built up based on a large-bore medium-speed four-stroke marine diesel engine using CONVERGE software. To obtain the influence of injection parameters on mixture homogeneity, a dimension reduction optimization method was proposed. The results revealed that the turbulence intensity and the penetration distance varied with the injection parameters, determined the level of mixture homogeneity. The performance comparison between the hydrogen engine and prototype diesel engine showed a great potential of hydrogen in internal combustion (IC) engines.
