Various types of Fuel Cells and their working By : Divykant Vishwakarma 03996404910 EEE 2nd shift S.No. 14 Fuel Cell A fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through a chemical reaction with oxygen or another oxidizing agent. Hydrogen is the most common fuel‚ but hydrocarbons such as natural gas and alcohols like methanol are sometimes used. Fuel cells are different from batteries in that they require a constant source of fuel and oxygen/air

renewable energy sources‚ fuel cell technology has received great attention as an alternative to the conventional way of getting energy due to its high efficiency‚ clean operation and cost efficient supply of power demanded by the consumers. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells technology plays a leading role for many applications when comparing with other competitive types of fuel cells. The world is in high demand for clean alternative fuel source and PEM fuel cells could be that change with

FUEL CELL CARS Fuel Cell cars are a major part of the fleet of Zero-Emission Vehicles. The fuel cells are fueled with pure hydrogen and hence they are considered to be zero emission vehicles. Fuel cells have been used on spacecraft for many years to power electric equipment. These are fueled with liquid hydrogen from the spacecraft ’s rocket fuel tanks. Basic Mechanics Fuel cell vehicles turn hydrogen fuel and oxygen into electricity. The electricity then powers an electric motor‚ just like

advances require more efficient sources of power. At the forefront of research for these power sources are hydrogen fuel cells. This power source takes in the most abundant element in the universe‚ Hydrogen‚ and yields immense power without combustion or pollution. The three aspects of this scientific breakthrough are the fuel cells‚ hydrogen production‚ and hydrogen storage. Fuel cells are the devices with which Hydrogen is made into electricity. These use a technology much similar to that of something

will it cost to purchase‚ re-fuel‚ launch‚ educate and distribute?) Benefits. No pollution: A great benefit of using Hydrogen fuel cells is that they give off no pollution‚ and in fact produce pure water as a byproduct. Even though currently engineers are concentrating on producing hydrogen from natural gas‚ it will be for a short-term. Scientists are planning to have renewable environmentally-friendly ways of producing hydrogen in the future. Efficiency: Fuel cells generate electrical power quietly

CAN FUEL CELLS CONTRIBUTE to FUTURE POWER CRISIS? Yong Ting Hui University Tunku Abdul Rahman‚ Faculty of Engineering and Science UTAR Complex Jalan Genting Kelang 53300 Setapak Kuala Lumpur. tinghui@1utar.my Abstract— Our current rate of non-renewable energy usage will lead to power crisis in the future. Power crisis is a state where the demand for power energy increases and the price of power energy rises. Therefore‚ civilization will be forced to research and develop alternative energy

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars: Worth the Investment? Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe‚ but only recently have people been able to harness this resource and turn it into energy. Hydrogen fuel cell cars are one such advancement made in the effort to turn hydrogen gas into electricity. Fuel cells in the car are used to convert hydrogen into an electrical current‚ and thus power the vehicle. Fuel cells convert hydrogen and oxygen into water while producing electricity.
