Starring of Hydrogen as a Compression Ignition Engine Fuel: A Review

As A well known fact, the energy resources for the major prime movers are discounting from the world, leaving toxic and fatal foot prints on the environment and human health. Diesel is one of such a fossil fuel which is used in the compression ignition engines, where compression ignition engines are the majorly used prime movers in medium and heavy vehicles, generators, pumps and machineries in most of the developed countries. The compression ignition engines have occupied irreplaceable designation where as replacement of fuel has been found. Hydrogen is one of such fuel which has already shown off itself as a good fuel for spark ignition engine, and also become a beckoning fuel for compression ignition engine researchers. When comes to emissions diesel fuel has got sundry toxic emissions due to abnormal or incomplete combustion. Partially burnt hydrocarbons are one of such biggest toxic traits out of CI engine tail pipe. In this review we focused on the effect of usage of hydrogen as substitute fuel in internal combustion engines under various conditions of operations such as injection pressures, injection timings, compression ratio etc.
