Clean Air Power Inc products

Hydrogen is now established as a sustainable fuel option that can help deliver a zero emission future. It is particularly applicable in Clean Air Power’s core markets where high power, long range and fast refuelling are key to maintain efficient operation or where weight considerations restrict the applicability of battery technology. Building on Clean Air Power’s global presence and long history as a provider of low carbon technology, dual fuel systems, gas components and recent hydrogen injector development, we have now partnered with a global supplier base, bringing together some of the best and innovative companies in the world to offer advice, support and a central sourcing option for fuel cell system development.

The Diesel Engine
Diesel engines work on the principle of compression ignition. Air is first drawn into a cylinder where it is highly compressed – far more so than in a petrol/gasoline engine. It is this high ‘compression ratio’ that makes a diesel engine more efficient than its counterpart.
Diesel fuel is injected into the cylinder at high pressure, near the point of maximum compression. The combination of diesel fuel, and heated compressed air within the cylinder, results in ignition. The fuel and air combination burns rapidly, increasing pressure and temperature, driving the piston back down the cylinder with great force. This sudden release of energy generates the power of the engine
