Conceptual Design and Performance Analysis of an Expander for the Recovery of Potential Energy Stored in Compressed Hydrogen

In the scope of global decarbonisation, hydrogen has been identified as an essential energy carrier. Not only as an energy storage solution for further electrification in vehicles but also as a primary fuel source in processes that rely on chemical energy which cannot be easily electrified. However, at ambient conditions, hydrogen is also a very...

The design of an innovative hydrogen-oxygen power system based upon a solid oxide fuel cell and an advanced thermodynamic cycle

In the battle against climate change, humankind needs to develop alternative energy systems if it wants to survive on this planet. Fossil fuels, polluting the air with CO2, must make way for renewable sources so that climate change is put to a stop. Several new energy initiatives based on renewable sources are deployed worldwide, these however...
