This study delves into the potential of hydrogen and ammonia as alternative fuels, with a focus on ammonia’s promise due to its zero-carbon emissions and high energy density. Employing machine learning techniques, specifically XGBoost and SVR, this study presents a comprehensive analysis of ammonia and hydrogen fuel blends to predict NOx emissions and flame temperature with high accuracy, achieving R2 values predominantly above 0.97. The model’s precision is particularly noteworthy compared to other machine learning techniques, where it consistently outperforms with the lowest MSE of 3508.31 and an impressive R2 value of 0.97653. A detailed feature importance analysis underscores the significance of NH3 mole proportion, equivalence ratio, and total mass flow rate in influencing nitrogen emissions. Furthermore, the proposed XSN optimization framework has proven effective in reducing nitrogen compounds, achieving a substantial decrease in Ngases concentration by 51.91 %, from 69.81 ppm to 33.57 ppm. The hybrid model developed in this study demonstrates exceptional capability in managing multiple optimization objectives, thereby offering advantagesin reducing the overall harmful emissions while maintaining stable operation in practical applications of NH3/H2 combustion. This research enhances the accuracy of emissions prediction under diverse conditions and provides valuable insights into effective strategies for controlling nitrogen emissions from NH3/H2 combustion. |  |\n| Keywords:\u003Cbr>Ammonia/hydrogen combustion NOx reduction\u003Cbr>Nitrogen emissions\u003Cbr>Machine learning Optimization |  |  |  |\n\n1. Introduction  \nAccording to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the global energy demand is projected to triple in the next decade and quintuple by the mid-century [1]. However, the increasing energy consumption, along with the rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, poses a serious and complex challenge for humanity. The threat of climate change and global warming urges the transition to a low-emission, carbon-free economy. Therefore, the search for clean and renewable energy sources drives the investigation of alternative non-fossil fuels, such as hydrogen. However, hydrogen as a fuel has inherent challenges of storage and distribution [2,3]. In contrast, ammonia is regarded as a promising candidate for the future energy sector due to its superior properties such as zero-carbon emission, easy storage, high energy density, etc. Furthermore, ammonia in combustion systems is becoming  \na viable option for replacing fossil fuels and reducing carbon emissions [4,5]. However, the widespread adoption of ammonia as a fuel still faces several challenges, such as its hig","cbCaicch3J9Vqlgl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicch3J9Vqlgl","pdf",5529297,1,14,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Motivation for alternative fuels\n## Challenges of ammonia combustion\n## Need to reduce NOx emissions\n# Modeling approach\n## XGBoost and SVR prediction\n## Feature importance analysis\n# Optimization framework\n## XSN optimization results\n## Reduction in nitrogen gases\n# Conclusions and implications","[{\"question\":\"Which machine learning methods are used to predict NOx emissions and flame temperature?\",\"answer\":\"The study employs XGBoost and SVR in a hybrid strategy to predict NOx emissions and flame temperature for ammonia/hydrogen/air premixed swirling flames.\"},{\"question\":\"How accurate is the hybrid model according to the reported metrics?\",\"answer\":\"Predictions achieve predominantly R2 values above 0.97, with the best results showing the lowest MSE of 3508.31 and an R2 value of 0.97653.\"},{\"question\":\"What parameters most influence nitrogen emissions in the feature importance analysis?\",\"answer\":\"NH3 mole proportion, equivalence ratio, and total mass flow rate are identified as the most significant factors affecting nitrogen emissions.\"}]","Modeling and optimization of ammonia/hydrogen/air premixed swirling flames for NOx emission control -
