A heat engine is a device which transforms the chemical energy of a fuel into thermalenergy and uses this energy to produce mechanical work. Engine is the power house of an automobile.It is the heart of an automobile, which is alive due to major two elements i.e. fuel and oxygen. Themajor fuels used today are Petrol, Diesel, etc. These fuels emit various green house gases like CO2,CO, NOX etc which leads to Global Warming. Hence the need for Alternate Fuel has raised. Themain objective is to use Methane+H2 gas as fuel which is considered as one of the cleanest & safestfuel. Moreover the use of these gases can increase the life span of engine by 50% and can reduce theGlobal Warming up to 4% of the total.
