This study investigates the effects of different injection strategies on the performance and emission characteristics of diesel-ammonia dual-fuel engines using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Two primary injection methods were analyzed: co-injection and post-injection strategies across varying ammonia energy ratios (10–50%). Results demonstrate that injection strategy significantly influences combustion efficiency, (Formula presented) formation, and unburned ammonia emissions. The co-injection method achieved superior thermal efficiency with maximum values of 38.46% at 50% ammonia ratio, while the post-injection strategy showed better emission control with reduced (Formula presented) slip. (Formula presented) emissions decreased by up to 83.1% compared to pure diesel operation for post-injection and 58.5% for co-injection, while (Formula presented) emissions reduced by 50.6% with co-injection and 40.2% with post-injection. This research provides critical insights for the development of environmentally sustainable diesel engine systems and contributes to the growing body of knowledge on carbon-free alternative fuels for internal combustion engine applications.
