Researchers investigate super-knock in SI engines running on hydrogen/methane blends

Green Car Congress

Using blends of hydrogen and methane as fuels in internal combustion engines is a promising strategy for reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Hydrogen is at higher risk of super-knock than other fuels because of the ways engines must operate to run efficiently on hydrogen. 2022.112277.
