  • COOLING A SUPPLEMENTARY HYDROGEN FUEL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20140096727
    Abstract: Systems and method for cooling a hydrogen generator of a supplementary fuel system are described. A controller can monitor a power consumption metric indicative of power consumption by the hydrogen generator of the supplementary fuel system. The controller can set, in view of the monitoring of the power consumption metric, a cooling system to a first setting to cool the hydrogen generator at a first rate.

  • ANODE OF SUPPLEMENTARY HYDROGEN FUEL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20140096728
    Abstract: A supplementary hydrogen fuel system is described. The supplementary hydrogen fuel system can include a hydrogen generator. The hydrogen generator can include a cylindrical enclosure of metal and a fuel cell unit disposed within the cylindrical enclosure. The fuel cell unit includes an anode core coupled to a second terminal of the power source. The anode core includes indentations on one or more surfaces. The indentations are arranged according to a first pattern.
