The paper presents the results of theoretical and experimental studies of the environmental characteristics of internal combustion engines for commercial and public motor vehicles operating on the Diesel cycle using a hydrogen additive. An analysis of literary sources confirmed that there are different data on harmful emissions when using a hydrogen additive for internal combustion engines operating on the Diesel cycle. The results of theoretical and experimental studies of the environmental characteristics of internal combustion engines for commercial and public motor vehicles operating on the Diesel cycle using a hydrogen additive suggest the adequacy of the built model, since the error between the theoretical and experimental data did not exceed 14.5%. It was found that the concentration of NOx emissions in an internal combustion engine using a hydrogen additive operating on the Diesel cycle decreased by 52%. The above research results confirm the prospects for the use of hydrogen additive for internal combustion engines operating on the Diesel cycle, which was first used for commercial and municipal motor vehicles. It guarantees improved environmental safety in urban agglomerations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
