Applications of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles
Applications of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles HFCV technology is an innovative way to power vehicles that use hydrogen as their primary fuel. It uses hydrogen to generate electricity inside the vehicle, powering electric motors and providing a clean alternative to traditional internal combustion engines. Fuel cell technology is the base of HFCVs and involves the electrochemical conversion of hydrogen fuel into electricity to power the vehicle's electric motor. The main components of a fuel cell include the anode, cathode and electrolyte. When hydrogen (H2 ) is supplied to the anode of the fuel cell, will occurs the process of hydrogen oxidation. In this process, hydrogen molecules split into protons (H⁺) and electrons (e− ) through a reaction facilitated by a catalyst (usually platinum) H2 → 2H⁺ + 2e− The protons travel through the electrolyte, the electrons travel through an external circuit, creating an electric current that can be used to power the vehicle's motor.
