The hydrogen-powered Internal Combustion Engine (H2ICE) is a revolutionary technology that plays a pivotal role in the future of sustainable energy and transportation. As global efforts to combat climate change accelerate, H2ICE stands at the forefront of decarbonizing heavy-duty transport, industrial machinery, and other sectors traditionally reliant on fossil fuels. Hydrogen, as a clean alternative fuel, offers a promising pathway to reduce carbon emissions while retaining the advantages of existing internal combustion engine technologies. To unlock the full potential of H2ICE technology, efficient simulation models and control systems are essential. Accurate and optimized models allow engineers to perform rapid analyses, optimize performance, and prototype control strategies with precision. This is where your expertise comes in. We are seeking master's graduates with an engineering background to undertake a thesis project focused on the development of an H2ICE model in MATLAB and Simulink. The project will involve leveraging existing gasoline engine libraries and adapting, optimizing, and tailoring them for hydrogen applications. The goal is to create a reliable and versatile simulation tool that will enable quick analyses and the prototyping of control systems to improve H2ICE performance and efficiency.
Key Project Objectives:Study H2ICE engine peculiarities and domain.Adapt existing gasoline engine libraries for H2ICE applications.Optimize the model to accurately simulate hydrogen combustion characteristics.Develop a Simulink model that integrates seamlessly with control systems.Explore various engine performance aspects, such as power output, fuel efficiency, and emissions reduction.This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a transformative technology, gain hands-on experience in modeling and simulation, and work on real-world applications that will shape the future of sustainable transportation. If you're passionate about cutting-edge technology, renewable energy, and engineering, we encourage you to apply for this exciting thesis opportunity. Join us in advancing the hydrogen economy and shaping a cleaner, more sustainable world!
