Book synopsis

The first two editions of Fuel Cell Systems Explained were well-received, and they have been translated independently into both Japanese and Chinese. The second edition (2003) is used by a number of university professors for teaching purposes, and stands apart from several fuel cell texts in being accessible to readers who have only a rudimentary background in engineering. Since 2003 a number of fuel cell textbooks have been published but FCE remains an accessible volume for undergraduate and early post-graduate study. The third edition enables the title to remain at the forefront of textbooks in this area. This third edition provides up-to-date coverage of this developing field, and provides accessible coverage of the theory and practical application of fuel cell technology. The authors build on the strengths of the first edition by presenting a clear and comprehensive coverage of all the major fuel cell types currently in commercial development. As well as being fully updated throughout, Chapter One now includes new tables, photos and figures where appropriate. Chapter Three brings together the authors' research into fuel cell electrode and electrolyte characteristics and derives an expression for 1-dimensional modeling of a complete fuel cell. Chapter Six ('Direct Methanol and other liquid fuelled systems') has been expanded. Chapter Seven, 'Medium and High Temperature Fuel Cells', is now divided into three chapters - 'Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells', 'Solid Oxide Fuel Cells', and 'Fuelling fuel cells'. There is a brand new topical chapter on hydrogen storage. Twelve new pages have been added to the final chapter 'Fuel Cell Systems Analysed'.
