Abstract: ABSTRACT [0017] Globalization and rising energy demands have led to an increase in the demand for fossil fuels. As a result, several countries are investigating alternative energy sources, and hydrogen is a useful and efficient alternative fuel. The development of hydrogen-powered vehicles is aimed at improving fuel efficiency and drastically lowering exhaust gas concentration and emission in the transportation sector. In this study, the effects of hydrogen use as an additional fuel on engine performance and gas emissions for spark ignition (SI) and compression ignition (CI) engines were examined. [0018] The thermal efficiency of the brakes, power, and torque of internal combustion engines drop when hydrogen is added as a fuel, and the fuel used for the brakes increases.According to this study, employing hydrogen will result in lower emissions of CO, UHC, CO2, and soot, while NOx emissions are predicted to rise. Hydrogen fuel is a clean and sustainable energy source, and its use should be increased, due to the reduction of environmental pollutants it produces for the majority of engines and the associated environmental advantages. When Hydrogen is used as fuel only fewer amounts of the emission components hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and soot are created when lubrication is burnt, making hydrogen a carbon-neutral fuel. Thus, cutting down on oil use is another area of progress. Nitrogen oxide is the major exhaust gas component (NOx). Hydrogen enables lean burning with a significant amount of surplus air due to its extremely rapid laminar rate of combustion and wide ignition limits.
