Course Description:
            This course covers a brief history of fuel cell development, electrode  potential theory, principles of an electrochemical cell, types of fuel  cells and their operation principles and practical applications.  Finally, current problems residing in mass production of fuel cells will  be discussed. The course is aimed at providing students with both basic  and advanced knowledge with regard to the physical and electrochemical  details of various fuel cells. It is expected that students would be  able to easily engage in fuel cell related research and development both  in advanced study or future work after this course. |
