Alternative fuels have become the new energy for future life. Compared with others, Dimethyl ether (DME) is regarded as one of the most promising choices for future internal combustion (IC) engines. Due to some negative properties of ethanol, spark-ignited (SI) ethanol engines always encounter...

Dimethyl ether (DME) and methanol are thought to be one of the most promising alternative fuels for IC engines. Meanwhile, previous investigations also have pointed out the good prospects for adopting DME and methanol in IC engines. The experiments in this paper were carried out at idle...

The performance of a hydrogen-blended gasoline engine at lean and the wide open throttle conditions was investigated. A hydrogen port-injection system was adopted to introduce the hydrogen into each cylinder. The engine was operated at 1400rpm and two hydrogen blending levels of 0% and 3%. The...

This paper proposed a new combustion strategy for the spark-ignited (SI) engines. A gasoline engine was converted into a hybrid hydrogen–gasoline engine (HHGE) by adding a hydrogen injection system and a hybrid electronic control unit. Different from the conventional gasoline and...
