* Daimler Chrysler: They have developed a PEM fuel cell system, known as the Necar 5, which uses reformed methanol as fuel.
* Horizon: They are a company that offers PEM fuel cell products, including the H-5000 PEM Fuel Cell, which is a 5kW fuel cell system.
These are just a few examples of companies that are involved in the production of PEM hydrogen fuel cells. There are many other companies and research institutions working on this technology as well.
Describe for me please, the Horizon PEM fuel cell in terms of its dimensions and weight.
**Horizon PEM Fuel Cell Dimensions and Weight**
The Horizon H-1000 PEM Fuel Cell has the following dimensions and weight:
* **Stack Size:** 268 x 219 x 123 mm (10.5" x 8.6" x 4.8")
* **Stack Weight (with Fan & Casing):** 4kg ± 100g (8.8 lbs ± 0.22 lbs)
* **Controller Weight:** 400g ± 30g (0.88 lbs ± 0.066 lbs)
Note that the dimensions and weight may vary slightly depending on the specific model and configuration of the fuel cell.
The Horizon PEM Fuel Cell just mentioned has what kind of performance with regard to power and durabillity?
**Horizon H-1000 PEM Fuel Cell Performance**
The Horizon H-1000 PEM Fuel Cell has the following performance characteristics:
* **Maximum Power:** 1 kW
* **Nominal Power:** 750 W
* **Efficiency:** Up to 40%
* **Lifetime:** 40,000 hours (approximately 5 years of operation)
* **Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF):** 20,000 hours
Note that the actual performance of the fuel cell may vary depending on the operating conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and fuel quality.
Does Horizon have other models that are more powerful than the one just mentioned?
**Horizon Fuel Cell Models**
Horizon offers a range of fuel cell models with varying power outputs. Some of their more powerful models include:
* **H-5000:** 5 kW PEM fuel cell stack, designed for stationary power generation and backup power applications.
* **H-10kW:** 10 kW PEM fuel cell stack, designed for medium-power applications such as data centers and telecommunications.
* **H-20kW:** 20 kW PEM fuel cell stack, designed for high-power applications such as industrial power generation and grid-scale energy storage.
These models are designed to be more powerful and efficient than the H-1000, and are intended for use in a variety of applications where high power density is required.
As for the Horizon H-20kw PEM fuel cell just mentioned, what is its dimensions in terms of volume and weight?
**Horizon H-20kW PEM Fuel Cell Dimensions and Weight**
The Horizon H-20kW PEM Fuel Cell has the following dimensions and weight:
* **Stack Size:** 560 x 295 x 350 mm (22" x 11.6" x 13.8")
* **Volume:** Approximately 0.06 cubic meters (2.1 cubic feet)
* **Weight (with Fan & Casing):** 15kg ± 1kg (33 lbs ± 2.2 lbs)
* **Controller Weight:** 1.5kg ± 0.1kg (3.3 lbs ± 0.22 lbs)
Please note that these dimensions and weight may vary slightly depending on the specific configuration and packaging of the fuel cell.
The discussion concludes with a fuel cell dimensions and its performance characteristics. It could be a starting point for building out a conceptual model for an electric powered vehicle. The goal for this EV would be for it to be comparable to the size and weight of a Toyota Corolla, and have roughly the performance you'd expect from such a conventional ICE vehicle.
