ChangAn Fires Up Hydrogen ICE
26 June 2007
People’s Daily. ChangAn Automobile successfully ran China’s first independently developed high efficiency and low discharge hydrogen internal combustion engine (ICE) on 18 June.
The high-efficiency and low-emissions hydrogen engine is the only main hydrogen fuel project established in China’s 863 plan. The successful ignition marks a milestone, and lays a foundation for national hydrogen engine industrialization development.
ChangAn began to develop its hydrogen engine in 2005.
I would be very interested to know how ChangAn is undertaking this development. The conventional four-stroke internal combustion engine is not a good starting point to develop a viable high thermal efficiency hydrogen ICE. I would like to make contact with the development team to discuss their objectives and present the advantages in thermal efficiency and power density of the Pivotal engine for hydrogen fuel.
I would be grateful to be directed to the managment of this development team. [email protected]
