Fuel Cell Fundamentals
As the search for alternative fuels heats up, no topic is hotter than fuel cells. Filling a glaring gap in the literature, Fuel Cell Fundamentals, Second Edition gives advanced undergraduate and beginning level graduate students an important introduction to the basic science and engineering behind fuel cell technology. Emphasizing the foundational scientific principles that apply to any fuel cell type or technology, the text provides straightforward descriptions of how fuel cells work, why they offer the potential for high efficiency, and how their unique advantages can best be used. Designed to be accessible to fuel cell beginners, the text is suitable for any engineering or science major with a background in calculus, basic physics, and elementary thermodynamics. This new edition provides updated and enhanced examples, problems, and pedagogy for classroom use and features a significantly enlarged section on the practical applications of fuel cell technology. A solutions manual will be developed.
Mesoporous Platinum Electrodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have long offered promise of renewable and highly efficient direct chemical to electrical energy conversion, though their high cost and operating temperatures have limited commercial adoption and applications. Recently, research efforts have focused on reducing the operating temperature by thinning the fuel cell membrane, thereby eliminating the requirement of high-temperature (800∘C to 1000∘C) compatible ceramic electrodes, and allowing the use of more traditional metallic catalysts that were previously limited to lower temperature fuel cell types due to materials compatibility constraints. However, because these operating temperatures (400∘C to 600∘C)...
