Description

 

Item ref. P111

Field of use: general science and chemistry, FC engineering

Education grades: university/vocational training

 

Package suitable for a first level of engineering training on fuel cells and fuel cell systems with hands-on experimentation. The included ClearPak fuel cell delivers high current densities with a realistic thermal response. Water management inside the cell is clearly visible. Pack enables the control of fuel cell performances through the complete balance-of-plant system.

 

Key features

 

- High performance, large fuel cell

- See-through fuel cell to observe water by-product of reaction

- Realistic flow field design. The fuel cell behaves like a real industrial FC.

- Sturdy design

- Take apart fuel cell and system that can be assembled by students

- Easy experiment setup

 

Recommended for fuel cell general science, chemistry, electrochemistry, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and electric education/training courses.
