Tywais Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Since there has been no posts here thought I would add something to it. We are also doing fuel cell research at Chiangmai University in collaboration with Engineering, Chemistry and MTEC (above Center). My responsibilities are designing the hardware/software control systems for it. The first image is of a small portable cell for demonstration purposes. The 2nd & 3rd picture are of our development and data analysis test station. Currently working on a 300 Watt standalone system that will generate 220VAC from the 12VDC fuel cell stack + several other DC voltages for miscellaneous devices. 2nd generation will be a 1000 Watt system. We had/have plans for possibly a fuel cell powered bicycle and tuk-tuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
