摘要
International Fuel Cells Corp has successfully demonstrated a 10-kW prototype of a 20-kW fuel cell power plant designed to be installed in a 44-in unmanned underwater vehicle. The power plant features multiple proton-exchange-membrane fuel-cell stacks and supporting ancillary components. The power plant is fueled by hydrogen and oxygen and produces only heat and potable water as byproducts of the electrochemical reaction. Energy efficiency of up to 68% has been demonstrated at rated power. The power plant is based on a passive system concept requiring no circulation of gases for thermal management and minimal water management, enhancing reliability and durability and maximizing energy density and vehicle range.
