This thesis discussed the influence of diesel fuel mixture with hydrogen gas on diesel engine performance in terms of volumetric efficiency, brake efficiency, brake mean effective pressure and brake specific fuel consumption at different engine speed using different mass fraction of hydrogen gas. Engine model drawn using GT-Power and the results of the analysis will be displayed using the GT-Post. In this study, addition of hydrogen gas is by adding hydrogen mass fraction in the air mixture so the gas can be burn with diesel fuel. There are two mass fraction of hydrogen use in the analysis, 0.005% and 0.010% for each analysis. Analysis showed that the addition of hydrogen gas obtained show negative impact on engine performance. Engine performance continued to decrease with the addition of more mass fraction of hydrogen gas.
