Direct Methanol Fuel Cell – The lastest engineering science for space and transportation applications. — With the materials in this kit students may conduct experiments that explore the characteristic curve of the methanol fuel cell, demonstrate the dependence of output on methanol concentration, and connect methanol cells in parallel and series. — A comparatively new fellow member of the fuel cell family, the Methanol Fuel Cell may well become the power source of choice for energy-efficient, non-polluting electric vehicles of the future. Electrical power is formulated directly from methanol. — The methanol fuel cell converts more than 34% of the energy content of the methanol into usable power – twice the efficacy of current gasoline engines. — Includes: direct methanol fuel cell with fuel storage tank, load-measurement box, three bottles for methanol storage, funnel for filling, spout for draining, and all required cables. The load-measurement box comprises of seven-position resistance decade, lamp, electric motor with fan, voltmeter, and ammeter. Kit comes in a plastic storage container with cut-out foam insert to protect all pieces, instructions.
