Free-piston engine generators (FPEGs) have huge potential to be the principle energy conversion device for generating electricity from fuel as part of a hybrid electric vehicle (EV) powertrain system. The principal advantages lays in the fact that th... Read More about Realization of a novel free-piston engine generator for hybrid electric-vehicle applications.

In this work, we present the experimental results obtained from hydrogen fuelled spark-ignited dual piston free-piston engine generator (FPEG) prototype operated in two-stroke and four-stroke mode. The FPEG testing was successfully conducted at 3.7 c... Read More about Evaluation of performance characteristics of a novel hydrogen-fuelled free-piston engine generator.
