Definition von fuel cells im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

plural form of fuel cell

convert hydrogen (H2) or H2-containing gases in electricity (and heat) using an electrochemical process which oxidizes H2 with O2 from the air ("cold combustion") This conversion yields low noise and low emissions, and relatively high electric efficiencies(40-60%), but needs the pre-processing of the fuel (e g natural gas) which causes losses Currently, phosphoric acid FC, molten carbonate FC and solid oxide FC are developed for stationary applications, while PEM-FC are developed especially for mobile applications (cars)

function in a manner similar to a battery in that both use an electrochemical conversion process Fuel cells typically take in hydrogen and oxygen (from air) and convert them into electricity and heat The waste product is water Some predict fuel cells will be the basis of a large industry in this century, although there are substantial obstacles to overcome Hydrogen is difficult to store and distribute, and installing hydrogen pumps in every gas station will be a very expensive undertaking Natural gas, propane and methanol, all of which can be converted into hydrogen, may be candidate fuels as well

Mechanical devices that use hydrogen or hydrogen-containing fuel such as methane to produce an electric current Fuel cells are clean, quiet and highly efficient sources of electricity

One or more cells capable of generating an electrical current by converting the chemical energy of a fuel directly into electrical energy Fuel cells differ from conventional electrical cells in that the active materials such as fuel and oxygen are not contained within the cell but are supplied from outside

Voltaic cells in which the reactants (usually gases) are supplied continuously

fuel cell

An electrochemical device in which the intrinsic chemical free energy of fuel and oxidant is catalytically converted to direct current energy

fuel cell

A device that produces electrical energy directly from the controlled electrochemical oxidation of the fuel, commonly hydrogen It does not contain an intermediate heat cycle, as do most other electrical generation techniques

fuel cell

A device that produces electricity with high efficiency (little heat) by using a fuel and a chemical which reacts with it (an oxidizer) at two separate electrical terminals An electric current is thereby produced

fuel cell

1 A fuel tank, especially one of a number of fuel tanks, as in airplane's wing; also, a compartment within a fuel tank

fuel cell

A technology that produces electricity through a chemical reaction similar to that found in a battery

fuel cell

A device that converts the chemical energy of a fuel and an oxidant directly into electricity The principal components of a fuel cell include electrodes catalytically activated for the fuel (anode) and the oxidant (cathode), and an electrolyte to conduct ions between two electrodes; thereby producing electricity

A device which produces electricity with high efficiency (little heat) by using a fuel and a chemical which reacts with it (an oxidizer) at two separate electrical terminals An electric current is thereby produced

fuel cell

An electrochemical cell in which the chemical energy of continuously supplied fuel is converted into electric energy

fuel cell

an electric cell used to generate electrical energy from the reaction of a number of chemicals, without the need for combustion and without producing noise or pollution Can use natural gas as a feed-stock

fuel cell

An electrochemical device that converts chemical energy directly into electricity through the chemical reaction of a fuel (for example, hydrogen) with oxygen

fuel cell

Electrochemical energy conversion device that converts hydrogen and oxygen into electricity and heat

fuel cell

cell that produces electricity by oxidation of fuel (hydrogen and oxygen or zinc and air); for use in electric cars

fuel cell

An electrochemical cell in which the energy of a reaction between a fuel, such as liquid hydrogen, and an oxidant, such as liquid oxygen, is converted directly and continuously into electrical energy. a piece of equipment that combines two different elements, such as oxygen and hydrogen, to produce electricity in order to supply power to a vehicle or machine. Device that converts chemical energy of a fuel directly into electricity (see electrochemistry). Fuel cells are intrinsically more efficient than most other energy-conversion devices. Electrolytic chemical reactions cause electrons to be released on one electrode and flow through an external circuit to a second electrode. Whereas in batteries the electrodes are the source of the active ingredients, which are altered and depleted during the reaction, in fuel cells the gas or liquid fuel (often hydrogen, methyl alcohol, hydrazine, or a simple hydrocarbon) is supplied continuously to one electrode and oxygen or air to the other from an external source. So, as long as fuel and oxidant are supplied, the fuel cell will not run down or require recharging. Fuel cells can be used in place of virtually any other source of electricity. They are especially being developed for use in electric automobiles, in the hope of achieving enormous reductions in pollution

fuel cell

A device which produces electricity with high efficiency (little heat) by using a fuel and a chemical which reacts with it (an oxidizer) at two seperate electrical terminals An electric current is thereby produced

fuel cell

A piece of equipment that converts chemical energy into electricity and hot water through an electrochemical process rather than through combusting the fuel source

fuel cell

An electrochemical device that continuously changes the chemical energy of a fuel (hydrogen) and OXIDANT (oxygen) directly to electrical energy and heat, without combustion The electrical process causes hydrogen atoms to give up their electrons It is similar to a battery in that it has ELECTRODEs, an ELECTROLYTE, and positive and negative terminals It does not, however, store energy as a battery does Because there is no combustion, fuel cells give off few emissions; because there are no moving parts, fuel cells are quiet Fuel cells can be used in stationary applications like generating electricity or heating buildings, and for powering vehicles, buses and trains Fuel cells are at least twice as efficient as gasoline engines

fuel cell

A device that produces electricity as a result of the burning of fuel gases, such as hydrogen

fuel cell

(Otomotiv) An alternate energy source that could someday power our future cars.
