Design and Analysis of a Direct Borohydride Fuel Cell DC-DC Converter for Portable Applications
… reactivity compared with gaseous hydrogen as the fuel, the direct borohydride fuel cell (DBFC) is becoming an emerging type of fuel cell. Electrochemistry of DBFC is described in this thesis. V–I characteristics and the equivalent circuit of DBFC are tested and analyzed. A dc-dc boost converter is …

Increasing fuel cell run time by preventing precipitation of reactants or products in direct sodium borohydride fuel cell
This work aims to maximize usable run time of direct sodium borohydride / hydrogen peroxide (NaBH4 / H2O2 ) proton exchange membrane fuel cell, given a fixed volume of fuel solution . In the fuel cell being developed here at the University of Illinois, there is a need to manage water flow so as to …
