Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.

Dr Florian HURAULT
Research Fellow
Dr Florian Hurault obtained his PhD in Energetics and Combustion from the University of Orléans, France, where his research focused on the auto-ignition characteristics of ammonia–hydrogen mixtures in internal combustion engines and rapid compression machines, with the aim of better understanding knock phenomena associated with ammonia-based fuels.
In 2026, he joined CNRS@CREATE as a Research Fellow within the HYCOMBS project, under the supervision of Professor Christine Mounaïm-Rousselle. His current research focuses on the development of next-generation ammonia-based combustion technologies to support the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions. His work investigates the influence of intake air humidity on engine performance and pollutant emissions, the effects of engine scaling and different ignition strategies in light- and medium-duty engines, and the mechanisms governing auto-ignition and knock onset.
