industrial research. The simulation program used in the present paper is AVL<br />

Boost v2011.<br />

The modelling was made for the DOHC Daewoo engine (aspirated<br />

engine and supercharged engine) with the characteristics from Table 2.<br />

The combustion law used was the Vibe law for two zones and the heat<br />

transfer coefficient used was Woschni.<br />

Engine specifications<br />

Engine type DOHC<br />

Displacement 1.5, litres<br />

Stroke 81.5, mm<br />

Bore 76.5, mm<br />

Cylinders 4<br />

Number of valves 16<br />

Connecting rod length 120, mm<br />

Compression ratio 9.2<br />

Maximum power engine speed 4800, rpm<br />

Engine operating regimes: full load and 3500 rpm with the next<br />

supercharge pressure and excess air-fuel ratio:<br />

gasoline with normal intake at λ=0.8, 0.85, 0.9, 1;<br />

gasoline with supercharge pressure 1.3 at λ=0.8, 0.85, 0.9;<br />

gasoline with supercharge pressure 1.5 λ=0.8, 0.85, 0.9;<br />

hydrogen with normal intake at λ=1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.5, 2, 2.5;<br />

hydrogen with supercharge pressure 1.3 at λ=1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 2, 2.5;<br />

hydrogen with supercharge pressure 1.5 at λ=1, 1.4, 1.5, 2, 2.5;<br />

For each simulation were made 50 cycles for better results.<br />

Supercharging the engine prevent backfire, cools the cylinder walls and<br />

increases the engine performance, allowing hydrogen to be used in safe<br />

conditions and with lower pollutant emissions. To protect the engine against<br />

damage the supercharge pressure was limited to 1.5 bar.<br />

3. Results<br />

For the engine running on gasoline with normal intake the maximum<br />

pressure is 48 bar. When the engine is supercharged the pressure increases<br />

significantly reaching 87 bar with a supercharge pressure of 1.5 bar. Using<br />

hydrogen as a fuel, the maximum pressure with normal intake is higher at<br />

stoichiometric excess air-fuel ratio and as the dosage was leaner the pressure<br />

drops at 43 bar at excess air-fuel ratio equal to 2.5. To achieve similar<br />

performance as with gasoline (normal intake), the engine running on hydrogen<br />

is supercharged and for the reduction of the NOx emissions, the values for the<br />

excess air-fuel ratio should be greater than 1.8. The supercharge pressure used is
