Low Cost, High Efficiency Reversible Fuel Cell (and Electrolyzer) Systems
A reversible solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC)/electrolyzer system capable of storing electrical energy generated from renewable sources at projected round-trip efficiencies over 80% and providing backup power generated from propane at efficiencies over 60% (LHV) was studied. The systems perform all electrochemical functions using a single stack assembly with a unique systems design that stores both...
متن کاملUltra low-loss low-efficiency diffraction gratings.
The realization of ultra low-loss dielectric reflection gratings with diffraction efficiencies between 7% and 0.02% is presented. By placing the grating beneath the highly reflective layerstack scattering was significantly reduced. This concept allows the all-reflective coupling of high laser radiation to high finesse cavities, thereby circumventing thermal effects caused by absorption in the s...
متن کاملIncreasing the Efficiency of Rake Receivers for Ultra-Wideband Applications
In diversity rich environments, such as in UltraWideband (UWB) applications, the a priori determination of the number of strong diversity branches is difficult, because of the considerably large number of diversity paths, which are characterized by a variety of power delay profiles (PDPs). Several Rake implementations have been proposed in the past, in order to reduce the number of the estimate...
متن کاملComparison of Hybrid Fuel Cell Vehicle Technology and Fuel Efficiency
Hybridization of fuel cells with additional batteries or ultracapacitors in a fuel cell vehicle reduces electrical and mechanical stresses on fuel cells and improves the overall drive train efficiency over a standard drive cycle. This paper primarily analyzes hybrid fuel cell vehicles with different drive train arrangements, and compares projected fuel economies of hybrid fuel cell vehicles wit...
متن کاملAlkaline membrane fuel cells with in-situ cross-linked ionomers
Improving cell performance and durability through both new materials and membrane electrode processing optimization is needed for the commercialization of alkaline membrane fuel cell (AMFC) technologies. In this work, we adopted an in-situ cross-linking strategy of an anion-conducting block copolymer to prepare durable ionomers for use in alkaline membrane fuel cells (AMFCs). Our goal was to us...
