Hydrogen-fueled　Wankel　rotary　engine　(WRE)　suffers　from　high　NOx　emissions,　high　risk　of　knock　and　uneven　thermal　load.　The　goal　of　this　work　is　to　investigate　the　application　of　quantitative　control　and　qualitative　control　on　a　hydrogen-fueled　WRE　and　find　a　suitable　load　control　strategy　for　hydrogen-fueled　WRE　to　address　above-mentioned　problems,　which　is　conducted　at　1500r/min.　The　results　show　that　the　combination　of　qualitative　control　and　quantitative　control　is　an　effective　way　to　obtain　the　excellent　performance　of　hydrogen-fueled　WRE,　which　can　achieve　higher　thermal　efficiency　while　effectively　improving　some　drawbacks　of　hydrogen-fueled　WRE,　such　as　uneven　thermal　load,　high　tendency　of　knock　and　high　NOx　emissions.　Besides,　it　also　can　flexibly　select　control　logic　according　to　the　priority　of　emissions,　efficiency,　stability　and　power.　Compared　to　quantitative　control,　the　combined　control　can　realize　higher　brake　thermal　efficiency　under　the　same　brake　torque,　and　the　highest　relative　and　absolute　improvements　are　38.4%　and　4.75%.　In　addition,　it　also　keeps　the　engine　running　in　an　acceptable　cyclic　variation　range.(c)　2022　Published　by　Elsevier　Ltd　on　behalf　of　Hydrogen　Energy　Publications　LLC.
