Fuel Cell Systems Explained. James Larminie, Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, UK Andrew Dicks, University of Queensland, Australia.

Fuel Cell Systems Explained. Oxford Brookes University, UK. Andrew Dicks. The point will frequently be made in this book that fuels cells are highly interdisciplinary, involving many aspects of science and engineering. This is reected in the number and diversity of companies that have helped with advice, information, and pictures in con-nection with this project. I am using the book to learn about Fuel Cells myself and my feelings are mixed. While this book is an excellent starting point, there are some over simplifications and errors. As a Mechanical engineer, some descriptions in the text made me cringe.

James Larminie, Andrew Dicks. Larminie (Oxford Brookes . UK) and Dicks (U. of Queensland, Australia) cover major fuel cell types, future technologies, direct methanol fuel cells, fuel cell operation and thermodynamics, fuel processing, and hydrogen storage and generation. System components such as compressors, turbines, regulators, inverters, grid inter-ties, electric motors, and hybrid fuel cell/battery systems. In summary, an altogether satisfying book that puts within its covers the academic tools necessary for explaining fuel cell systems on a multidisciplinary basis. Power Engineering Journal. well written and produced. Journal of Power and Energy.

Fully revised and updated, the second edition:

Provides an essential guide to the principles, design and application of fuel cell systems. Includes full and updated coverage of fuel processing and hydrogen generation and storage systems. Presents a full and clear explanation of the operation of all the major fuel cell types, and an introduction to possible future technology, such as biological fuel cells Features a new chapter on the direct methanol fuel cell. Now includes examples of the modelling, design and engineering of real fuel cell systems. A clear overview of fuel cell operation and thermodynamics Coverage of the complete fuel cell system including compressors, turbines, and the electrical and electronic sub-systems such as regulators, inverters, grid inter-ties, electric motors, and hybrid fuel cell/battery systems. Assuming no prior knowledge of fuel cell chemistry, this reference comprehensively brings together all of the key topics encompassed by this diverse field. Practitioners, researchers and students in electrical, power, chemical and automotive engineering will continue to benefit from this essential guide to the principles, design and application of fuel cell systems.
  • Awesome book, the best. Great service

  • great

  • it is good but the only disadvantage that it is without the problems (questions) in the end of the chapter

  • Even if you don't have a engineering background this book is understandable, however to make full use of it you should know some chemistry and calculus. The book walks you through the basics of fuel cell concepts and then leads on to more advanced topics such as delivering fuel cell power. It's only drawback is that it doesn't have any exercises but its not a real downer because after reading it you'll pretty much understand the concepts and how to use the equations without them.

  • Fuel cells is a very difficult topic to write about because of the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. I am using the book to learn about Fuel Cells myself and my feelings are mixed. While this book is an excellent starting point, there are some over simplifications and errors. As a Mechanical engineer, some descriptions in the text made me cringe. Watch out for errors in some equations.

    Excellent resource for someone with a technical background and general interest in fuel cells. For more serious users, recommend using in conjunction with maybe the DOE fuel cell handbook available from NETL or from OSTI.GOV

  • This book was a textbook in graduate school about fuel cell course. This book was perfect for my course. This is much cheaper than a regular price. Thank you for sharing this book in Amazon.com.

  • This book is extremely well written. I am a grad student and wanted to learn about Fuel Cells and chose this book. It gives you everything you need to know starting with an assumption that you dont know anything! i.e. starts from basics and brings you up to speed. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Fuel Cells. The level of minimum education required to comprehend this book is around sophomore-junior. Enjoy learning fuel cells!

  • Great quality though used book
