To accelerate the global decarbonization of the transport and energy sectors, current efforts are focusing on the application of hydrogen in large-bore engines. However, there is a lack of predictive simulation models that combine fundamental combustion chemistry with real-world engine conditions. This project bridges the gap between basic and applied research via a closed-loop approach: Kinetic data obtained from shock tube experiments at Stanford enable the development of precise reaction mechanisms at TUM. Validating these models on a large-bore engine test bench yields a robust 3D-CFD tool. This synergy of diagnostics and engineering facilitates the targeted optimization of high-performance, zero-emission hydrogen powertrains.
