CHAPTER IV
ENERGY
CONVERSION BY
FUEL CELLES
DR. T.KASSEM
,A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that
converts chemical energy in electrical energy.
Hydrogen Oxygen
Fuel Cell
Heat
Electric
power Water
, - Fuelcell can be fed with a continous
supply of fuel so that electrical power
production will be continuous.
- Severaldifferent fuel cell types, all work
on the same principle: converting
hydrogen directly into electrical energy
and heat through the electrochemical
reaction of hydrogen and oxygen:
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O + energy
