Since I was a little lad, I have been hearing that hydrogen was the fuel of the future ! That was 50 years ago !
what has happened ?
15 Years ago I was involved, with the commissioning of a Solar-Vasserstoffe fabrik, in Neunburg am Wald.The plant split water into Hydrogen and Oxygen .
The Hydrogen was then recombusted with the oxygen in a fuel cell., and DC electricity was generated. this was then rectified using an Umrighter and resulted in 147 kw of electrical power . what ever happened to this promising technology ?
Hydrogen does have some peculiarities . Characteristic for normal combustion Lowest heat value per cubic meter of gas.. Highest heat release per Kilogram of gas. Products of combustion H20 water. High combustion velocity tends to cause back burning in conventional aspirated burners.
I suppose that the image for Hydrogen is distorted by the Hindenburg disaster, I also suspect that the good Burgers of the Cotswolds would get abit worried if Hydrogen tankers were suddenly passing through their villages.
Somebody help me out here to understand where we are currently with Hydrogen
