RE14 – Advanced Fuel Cell Technology
The RE14 Advanced Fuel Cell Technology system provides students with a self-contained modular system, covering current fuel cell technology on a laboratory scale.
Using the system students can undertake experiments covering working principles, efficiency, and characteristics curves of electrolysers and fuel cells.
In addition to a PEM-fuel cell, it also contains an ethanol-fuel cell to compare the different technologies.
Description
The RE14 Advanced Fuel Cell Technology system provides students with a self-contained modular system, covering current fuel cell technology on a laboratory scale.
Using the system students can undertake experiments covering working principles, efficiency, and characteristics curves of electrolysers and fuel cells. In addition to a PEM-fuel cell, it also contains an ethanol-fuel cell to compare the different technologies.
Including three PEM-fuel cells the kit enables students to build fuel cell stacks. H2 Charger and H2 Storage are provided with the system to allow for the easy generation and storage of hydrogen.
