Hydrogen for Future Thermal Engines Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023 9783031284113 The role of hydrogen in zero-carbon propulsion and power generation systems in the 21st century and beyond -- Hydrogen’s physical characteristics -- Reaction kinetics -- Ignition -- Laminar flames -- Turbulent Flames -- Sprays -- Detonation -- Stationary combustion systems -- Spark Ignition engines -- Compression ignition engines -- Gas turbines.This book explores the potential of hydrogen combustion in thermal engines and serves as a foundation for future research. Hydrogen, a well-established energy carrier, has been used in internal combustion engines for centuries, but despite progress and industry interest, hydrogen engines have yet to reach mass production. In light of recent efforts to combat climate change with clean energy and environmentally-friendly technologies, the use of hydrogen in thermal engines is gaining momentum. This book examines the unique challenges of hydrogen combustion due to its wide flammability limits, high auto-ignition temperature, and high diffusivity. It reviews current knowledge on the fundamental and practical aspects of hydrogen combustion and considers current developments and potential future advancement.Green Energy and Technology,1865-3537Hydrogen as fuelRenewable energy sourcesEnergy storageProduction engineeringHydrogen EnergyRenewable EnergyMechanical and Thermal Energy StorageThermal Process EngineeringHydrogen as fuel.Renewable energy sources.Energy storage.Production engineering.Hydrogen Energy.Renewable Energy.Mechanical and Thermal Energy Storage.Thermal Process Engineering.665.81Tingas Efstathios-Al1373323MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910734829803321Hydrogen for Future Thermal Engines3404430UNINA
