Abstract
A power system for an engine that can be used in an aircraft, a marine vessel or a land vehicle has a storage tank containing ammonia. An engine supported on the vehicle is configured to operate using hydrogen gas as fuel. A cracking device in or adjacent the engine receives heat from operation of the engine, e.g., from a compressor or a combustion chamber, and also receives ammonia from the storage tank, and it uses the heat from the engine to dissociate the ammonia to produce hydrogen gas. The cracking device supplies the hydrogen gas to the engine, which has a combustor in which combustion of the hydrogen gas takes place. The energy from the combustion drives the engine so as to provide mechanical energy.
