Running Experiments and Energy Saving Running Simulations of Single Person Operated Fuel Cell Vehicle with 1kW Fuel Cells (Micro FCV)
Abstract
We have developed a single person operated small fuel cell vehicle which uses a 1 kW fuel cell. The hydrogen used for the fuel cell is produced by a water electrolysis hydrogen generator using a solar powered energy source. The advantage of using a solar powered energy source is that it produces power without requiring the use of fossil fuels. This paper presents the running experiments and the optimum running mode simulations of the developed small fuel cell vehicle.
