Hydrogen Cars Combustion Engines
The issue of whether hydrogen vehicles are internal combustion engines is currently attracting much attention. Hydrogen vehicles have significant differences in their power sources from traditional internal combustion engine vehicles.
Traditional internal combustion engines rely more on the combustion of fossil fuels to generate power. During the combustion process, they emit many harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, etc., which have a non-negligible impact on the environment.
Hydrogen vehicles have two main forms of power systems. One is the hydrogen fuel cell, which uses the electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen in the battery to generate electricity to drive the vehicle forward. This process does not involve combustion at all, and the product is only water, which is extremely clean and environmentally friendly. The second is that some hydrogen vehicles try to use hydrogen directly as fuel in the internal combustion engine. However, even so, compared with traditional fossil fuel internal combustion engines, the pollutants generated by hydrogen combustion are also greatly reduced.
Therefore, from the mainstream perspective, most hydrogen vehicles are not traditional combustion engines. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are gradually becoming an important direction for the development of future transportation due to their clean and efficient characteristics. Even if some hydrogen vehicles are powered by internal combustion engines burning hydrogen, there are many differences with traditional combustion engines in terms of environmental performance and working principle.
