In response to the escalating global demand for energy spurred by industrialization, nations are increasingly turning to alternative fuel sources. Among these alternatives, hydrogen stands out for its remarkable efficiency and environmental benefits. With its potential to significantly reduce fuel consumption and air pollution, particularly in the transportation sector, hydrogen has garnered widespread attention as a promising solution to our energy challenges. This study focuses on the development of a dynamic model for an internal combustion engine powered by hydrogen (H2-ICE). By intricately dissecting and modeling the various components of the engine and their interactions, we aim to create a comprehensive simulation platform. This platform will enable us to accurately predict and analyze the performance of H2-ICE under different operating conditions. Through the utilization of advanced simulation tools like Matlab Simulink, we can validate the efficacy and reliability of our model, providing valuable insights into the behaviour of hydrogen-powered engines. Furthermore, the implications of this research extend beyond mere simulation. The developed model opens up avenues for further exploration and innovation in the field of hydrogen propulsion. For instance, it lays the groundwork for the development of sophisticated control systems tailored specifically for H2-ICE applications. Additionally, the effectiveness of the proposed model in terms of air intake dynamics, pressure, temperature, fuel injection response, combustion efficiency, and overall engine performance, such as power output, torque, and engine velocity are illustrated through simulation results using Matlab Simulink.
