ntroduction to fuel cells, difference between fuel cells and other electrochemical cells.
Characteristics of fuel cells (energy efficiency, environmental issues, operating performance,
etc.). Fuel cells basics: (thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions, types of
overpotentials, electrodes reactions in fuel cells, gas diffusion electrode, electrocatalysis, fuel
cell efficiency). Components of fuel cells, Fuel cell design and components, stack components,
Fuel Cell systems: (Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cells, Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells, Solid oxide Fuel
Cells, Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells, Direct Methanol Fuel Cells, and Alkaline fuel cells). Fuel
Cell Applications: Stationary Power Plants, Automotive Power Plants, other Applications. The
course includes lab work for providing the students with relevant hands-on experiments.
