A comprehensive investigation on diesel pilot spray ignited methane-hydrogen (CH₄–H₂) combustion, tri-fuel combustion (TF), is performed in a single-cylinder compression ignition (CI) engine. The experiments provide a detailed analysis of the effect of H₂ concentration (based on mole fraction, M_H2) and charge-air temperature (T_air) on the ignition behavior, combustion stability, cycle-to-cycle (CCV) and engine performance. The results indicate that adding H₂ from 0 to 60% shortens the ignition delay time (IDT) and combustion duration (based on CA90) up to 33% and 45%, respectively. Thereby, H₂ helps to increase the indicated thermal efficiency (ITE) by as much as 10%. Furthermore, to gain an insight into the combustion stability and CCV, the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) methodologies are applied to estimate the combustion stability and CCV of the TF combustion process. The results reveal that the pressure oscillation can be reduced up to 4 dB/Hz and the CCV by 50% when M_H2 < 60% and T_air < 55 °C. However, when M_H2 > 60% and T_air > 40 °C, abnormal combustion and knocking are observed.
