5 KVA HYDROCARBON-AIR FUEL CELL SYSTEM

Abstract

Principal emphasis was placed upon the overall power plant analysis and design. The three major systems, the fuel cell, reformer, and inverter, comprising the power plant are discussed. The integration of these into the total system is explained. The electrical controls, tentative operating, and maintenance procedures of the power plant are included in the report. The fuel cell system is presented with discussions of the design, function, and control of its various subsystems. The fuel cell module is analyzed as to its configuration, components, weight, and operation. Appendices are attached which give substantiative information for the total system concept in the form of calculations, equipment specifications, test reports, and manufacturers contacted.
