Journal ArticleDOI
The hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine : a technical review.
TL;DR: In this article, a review is given of contemporary research on the hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine and the emphasis is on light-to medium-duty engine research, where it is shown that due to low volumetric efficiencies and frequent preignition combustion events, the power densities of premixed or port-fuel-injected hydrogen engines are diminished relative to gasoline-powered engines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exergy analysis of hydrogen production via steam methane reforming
Adam P. Simpson,Andrew E. Lutz +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of hydrogen production via steam methane reforming (SMR) is evaluated using exergy analysis, with emphasis on exergy flows, destruction, waste, and efficiencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production by steam reforming
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production by steam reforming, which treated the chemistry at two levels: a global species balance assuming complete reaction and solution of the equilibrium composition at the specified reformer temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production by partial oxidation reforming
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production by partial oxidation reforming is presented, which applies two approximations to the chemistry: global reaction balances and chemical equilibrium, and provides theoretical upper limits on the process in the form of algebraic expressions involving the steam to carbon ratio and the oxygen-to-carbon ratio as process parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic comparison of fuel cells to the Carnot cycle
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the theoretical maximum efficiency of a fuel cell to the efficiency of an ideal fuel cell driven by the same net reaction, and showed that the maximum efficiency is the same as that of a combustion engine.
