    Effect of hydrogen addition on performance and emission characteristics of a common-rail CI engine fueled with diesel/waste cooking oil biodiesel blends
    (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2020) FEYZİOĞLU, AHMET; Akcay, Mehmet; Yilmaz, Ilker Turgut; Feyzioglu, Ahmet
    In this study, the effect of hydrogen addition to a compression ignition (CI) engine fueled with the diesel fuel-waste cooking oil biodiesel (WCOB) blend (B25) on the engine performance, and exhaust emissions was examined experimentally. In the tests, a four-cylinder, four-stroke, water-cooled, 1.461-L, turbocharged CI engine was used. The engine tests were performed at the fixed engine speed of 1750 rpm and at the diverse engine loads of 40, 60 and 80 Nm. The hydrogen was added to the intake air at the flow rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40 lpm. According to the results obtained, hydrogen had a positive effect on break specific fuel consumption (BSFC) for all test conditions. The increase occurred at the exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) and cylinder pressures (CPs) with hydrogen addition. The NOx and total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions decreased with the hydrogen addition until 30 lpm at 40 and 60 Nm engine loads. On the other hand, they increased at 80 Nm engine load for all hydrogen additions. While CO2 and O-2 emissions decreased with the hydrogen addition, the smoke emissions increased. It was found that the value of 30 lpm was the optimum condition of the hydrogen addition rates. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Energy, Exergy and Exergo-Economic Characteristics of Hydrogen Enriched Hydrocarbon-Based Fuels in a Premixed Burner
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2021) YILMAZ, İLKER TURGUT; Ozdemir, Mehmed Rafet; Yangaz, Murat Umut; Yilmaz, Ilker Turgut
    The enrichment of conventional fuels by hydrogen is quite popular owing to positive environmental aspects compared to the main fuel. In most of the studies, the entropy analysis was not examined in detail. In this research, exergy (second law) analysis of hydrogen-enriched methane, natural gas, propane, LPG, and biogas were analyzed using the numerical model in a premixed burner due to their wide usage in the industry as well as in the household appliances. In the numerical model, the discrete ordinates radiation and Realizable k- epsilon turbulence models were coupled with the premixed combustion model. The rate of increase for hydrogen of each fuel is considered as 10%. The premixed burner exhibited better performance in terms of energy and exergy with the rise of hydrogen enrichment. The most improvement was observed at biogas tests. The results showed that the chemical composition of the base fuel is a significant parameter that affects the exergy and energy capability of the burner due to chain reactions of radicals in the base fuel with hydrogen. It can be concluded that the hydrogen enrichment of biogas in premixed burners is promising in comparison with other tested fuels from both energy and exergy perspective.

    The influence of hydrogen addition on the combustion characteristics of a common-rail CI engine fueled with waste cooking oil biodiesel/diesel blends
    (Elsevier B.V., 2021) FEYZİOĞLU, AHMET; Akcay M., Yilmaz I.T., Feyzioglu A.
    In this study, the effect of hydrogen assisted intake air on combustion characteristics of a diesel fuel-waste cooking oil biodiesel (WCOB) blend fueled CI engine has been extensively studied. While the diesel and B25 (75% diesel fuel+25% WCOB) fuels used as the main fuel were sprayed directly into the cylinder, the hydrogen, the secondary fuel was mixed with the intake air at 10, 20, 30 and 40 lpm flow rates and taken into the cylinder. The maximum in-cylinder pressure (CP) values decreased with B25 fuel compared to diesel fuel. But B25‑hydrogen dual-fuel mode operation exhibited higher maxium CP and RoPR value according to diesel fuel. It was seen that hydrogen has a more significant effect on premixed pilot fuel combustion phase compared to the diffusion combustion phase. It was observed that the combustion duration (CD) of neat B25 fuel lower than that of diesel fuel, generally. In case of B25‑hydrogen dual-fuel mode operation, CD increased depending on increasing hydrogen addition rate. It was seen that hydrogen enrichment has no adverse effect on ringing intensity (RI). © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
