FUEL CELLS - Experimental Work

CONCLUSIONS

Fuel cells produce an electric current that is proportional to the rate at which the reaction is taking place. Experimental work has shown that temperature and voltage were both factors influencing the chemical reaction speed. These fuel cells also produce a small amount of power, but their characteristics are scalable. Usually they are connected in series or parallel in a stack to reach the voltage and power level needed.
