Project description
Towards a pollution-free hydrogen economy
Today's energy production is mainly based on fossil fuels, inevitably leading to increased CO2 emissions. The path to carbon-neutral energy is the replacement of fossil fuels with renewable sources. The EU-funded POLKA project aims to address the problems associated with hydrogen combustion, namely the major hardware damage caused by thermoacoustic instabilities and the issue of flashback. Combining experiments, numerical simulations and analytical techniques, POLKA will focus on creating new physical insights and advanced simulation tools to underpin the development of hydrogen-fuelled combustion systems. Moreover, it will provide a unique integrated training programme in innovation, exploitation and entrepreneurship as well as rich open-access training resources.
