Experimental investigations have been carried out on a computer interfaced with; four-stroke cycle, single-cylinder, compression ignition (CI) engine, which was converted to spark ignition (SI) and carburetion, to suit ethanol fuel and a provision was made at the inlet manifold of the said engine to induct hydrogen gas. The effect of hydrogen substitutions on CO, HC, NOx emissions at 7, 9 and 11 compression ratios were determined. It was found that, at 100 % load, the percentage ofhydrogen substitution varied from zero to 80 % and the NOX emissions increased by 58.62, 59.3, 62.74 % for 7, 9, 11 compression ratios respectively. When the effect of compression ratio changed from 7:1 to 11:1 the same change took place in the percentage of substitution which was a reduction of CO and HC by 30.4 and 21.67 %.}, keywords = {hydrogen,Ethanol,Compression Ratio,Spark ignition,emissions}, url = {https://www.ije.ir/article_71715.html}, eprint = {https://www.ije.ir/article_71715_28a9b173dee8444fcf8914f36efa5980.pdf} }
