Hydrogen Generator Assemblies.

Abstract

The objective of the work was to evaluate design criteria for a simplified hydrogen generator for a 500 watt fuel cell. The hydrogen is produced by the catalytic steam reforming of vaporized JP-4 fuel with subsequent purification through a palladium-silver separator. The experimental studies were performed on a breadboard type system. This system contained all of the major sub-components required in an actual portable unit for field use.
