Hydrogen

The ongoing depletion of fossil fuels, along with the global warming issue, has become a significant concern in recent years. An alternative fuel is hydrogen, which does not produce any carbon emissions. Hydrogen can be renewable – depends on its production process-not toxic, with no significant impact on global warming. Hydrogen can be utilized in well-established high-efficient power generation systems. Hydrogen is an energy that will never run out and there will always be resources to produce. Also, hydrogen is incredibly dense in energy and capable of delivering high-density power, which is necessary for applications such as air transportation. Hydrogen fuel can provide motive power for cars, trucks, trains, boats, and airplanes, portable fuel cell applications, or stationary fuel cell applications, which can power an electric motor. 

Hydrogen is considered the primary sustainable source of renewable energy and is highly required for advanced energy conversion systems. We have done some work on a two-dimensional burner and investigated CO₂ dilution on the thermochemical characteristics of a swirl-stabilized diffusion flame as a starting point. Hence, simulation and investigation of NO_x production and carbon emissions in a three-dimensional burner, which uses a fuel that contains hydrogen, is on our research roadmap.
