摘要:
A power cell comprising a membrane (1505), with a first side and a second side, having a three-dimensional geometric structure encompassing a volume (1507), a cover (1520) coupled to the membrane to separate a first flow path (1510) from a second flow path (1515) at the membrane (1505), first and second catalyst in gaseous communication with respective first flow path (1510) and second flow path (1515) and in ionic communication with respective first and second sides of the membrane (1505), and a first electrode (1530) electrically coupled to the first catalyst on the first side of the membrane (1505) and a second electrode (1535) electrically coupled to the second catalyst on the second side of the membrane (1505).
摘要:
A method of operating power cells, comprising dynamically controlling generation of power by at least a subset of power cells among a plurality of power cells in a presence of fuel and oxidant through electrical control of at least one electrical element coupled to at least a subset of the plurality of power cells.
摘要:
Among other things, a gas storage system includes a group of capsules and an activation element coupled to the group. The group of capsules are formed within a substrate and contain gas stored at a relatively high pressure compared to atmospheric pressure. The activation element is configured to deliver energy in an amount sufficient to cause at least one of the capsules to release stored gas.
摘要:
A method of cleaning power cells in an array of power cells, comprising coupling at least one first power cell to second power cells in an array of power cells and causing the second power cells to drive the at least one first power cell with a voltage to clean catalyst on the at least one first power cell.
