1 FUEL CELLS JONATHAN GOHEEN

2 WHAT are fuel cells? Energy devices that continuously transform chemical energy to electrical energy. Fuel often used is Hydrogen Very efficient with environment friendly by- products.

3 HOW does it work? Hydrogen and Oxygen flow Use of anodes and cathodes Polymer electrolyte membrane Electrons must travel in an external circuit Formation of H20

4 THERMO relevance ∆(Free Energy)=∆(enthalpy)-(T)∆(entropy) Thermodynamics is sweet!!

5 “Real World Usage”

6 Conclusion Get to know fuel cells!!! They are the FUTURE!!
