Journal ArticleDOI

Performance of a diesel generator fuelled with palm oil

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance and emissions of a MWM 229 direct injection four-stroke 70kW diesel generator with 100% palm oil were compared to a 100% pure palm oil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Economic analysis of a diesel/photovoltaic hybrid system for decentralized power generation in northern Brazil

TL;DR: For small villages, hybrid options have advantages over traditional diesel systems because they reduce fuel consumption and O and M costs while improving the quality of service as discussed by the authors. But these advantages are limited to small villages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance analysis of a 5 kW PEMFC with a natural gas reformer

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental analysis of a power generation system formed by a 5 kW proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) unit and a natural gas reformer (fuel processor) for hydrogen production is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of powertrain hybridization on the performance and costs of a fuel cell electric vehicle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Advanced Vehicle Simulator (ADVISOR) to analyze the influence of the degree of hybridization on the performance and total cost of an FCEV (Hyundai Nexo 2019 model).
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of drivetrain hybridization on fuel economy, performance and costs of a fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle

TL;DR: In this paper, a mid-sized FCHEV is modeled and simulated in ADVISOR to analyze the influence of hybridization factor on vehicle performance and costs, and the results are compared with those of the Toyota Mirai in order to find the optimum size of the fuel cell stack and the number of battery modules that meet various driving requirements, minimize hydrogen consumption and vehicle cost.
