Hydrogen energy is a kind of secondary energy with an abundant source, wide application, green, and is low-carbon, which is important for building a clean, low-carbon, safe, and efficient energy system and achieving the goal of carbon peaking and being carbon neutral. In this paper, the effect of nozzle position, hydrogen injection timing, and ignition timing on the in-cylinder combustion characteristics is investigated separately with the 13E hydrogen engine as the simulation object. The test results show that when the nozzle position is set in the middle of the intake and exhaust tracts (L2 and L3), the peak in-cylinder pressure is slightly higher than that of L1, but when the nozzle position is L2, the cylinder pressure curve is the smoothest, the peak exothermic rate is the lowest, and the peak cylinder temperature is the lowest.

The design method for the powertrain mounting system in internal combustion engine vehicles is well-established. Electric vehicles experience higher vibration frequencies and more significant transient responses when accelerating or braking than fuel vehicles due to their high speed and fast response. Therefore, the design of the electric drive assembly mounting system requires further development. The modeling of electric drive assembly mounting systems often neglects the mounting bracket’s influence, which significantly affects the center of mass and rotational inertia of the electric drive assembly. This paper examines the effect of the mounting bracket in the electric drive assembly mounting system. It establishes a mathematical model with six degrees of freedom for the mounting system, considering the mounting bracket. By comparing the natural characteristics and the transient response, it is discussed whether the mass of the mounting bracket greatly influences the system.

In order to scrutinize the timing variables impacting the combustion performance and emissions of the Port Fuel Injection hydrogen engine (PFI-H2ICE), a model of a four-cylinder hydrogen engine is meticulously built utilizing the 1D software GT-POWER. The effect of excess air coefficients and timing strategies (including the intake valve opening timing (IVO), the start of injection timing (SOI), and ignition timing) is analyzed in this study. The main conclusions are as follows: The hydrogen engine remold from the Isuzu JE4N28 nature gas engine manifests a lean combustion threshold ranging between 2.0 and 2.5. Notably, advancing intake valve opening timing by 20°CA has proven beneficial to the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) of the hydrogen engine while reducing the NOx emissions by a substantial margin, and advancing intake valve opening timing bears the virtue of strengthen the positive influence of the start of injection timing upon the engine's combustion performance.
