| description | AbstractThe automotive industry is considered as one of the biggest industries worldwide. On this field, continuous researchand development are performed to improve efficiencies of cars and trucks. Increasing efficiencies of automotives notonly lead to cost reduction but also to reduced pollution, which is very important in today’s society. Therefore, eachcountry in the world is carrying out research on developing alternative energy sources. Therefore, it is essential todevelop the environment-friendly alternative energy urgently considering the limitation of fossil fuel and the globalwarming caused by environmental destruction. In this research, the new technology to produce hydrogen and syngasfrom natural gas with a homogeneous charge compression ignition reforming engine was studied. The simulat ion toolused was CHEMKIN 3.7, using the GRI natural gas combustion mechanism. This simulation was conducted on thechanges in hydrogen and syngas concentration according to the variations of equivalence ratio, intake heatingtemperature, and oxygen enrichment with partial oxidation. Through the parametric screening studie s, optimumconditions in this study were found: The equivalence ratio was 2.5; The inlet temperature was 530 K, and the oxygencontents in air was 0.3. |
