| Abstract | This paper discusses the results obtained from experimental investigations to evaluate the exhaust emission (i.e. CO, HC and NOX) characteristics of a hydrogen-ethanol dual fuel combination of 80 percent hydrogen and 20 percent ethanol to a spark ignition engine at the three different compression ratios of 7:1, 9:1 and 11:1, at varying equivalence ratios and an engine speed of 1500 rpm. The benefit of substituting 80% of hydrogen with ethanol deriving from the present study is a reduction of HC and CO emissions with increasing compression ratios. This however, is accompanied by a corresponding increase in NOX emissions with increasing compression ratios. |
