FEASIBILITY INVESTIGATIONS OF HYDRAZINE-AIR BI-CELLS.

Abstract

The use of hydrazine-air bi-cells, capable of operating with high fuel concentrations and with an inherent electrolyte circulation system, is another approach to the simplification of fuel cell power sources. Investigations have established the feasibility of operating self-contained small bi-cells at high currents. Bi-cells sized for use in the 60/240 watt hydrazine-air manpack power supply have delivered 6 and 14 amperes, at a minimum of 0.6 volts operating on an 18 minute/2 minute duty cycle. (Author)
