Fuel cells - controlling the energy of the future
Fuel cells have been hailed as the energy source of the future; they can provide a non-polluting supply of power by re-combining hydrogen and oxygen to create electricity and water. The chemistry sounds very simple, however creating a reliable, efficient and safe energy source requires considerable expertise, especially in the control of the fluids and gases that are involved in this exciting technology.Tony Brennan, Field Segment Manager, at B&u...
Large yearly pledge for sustainable energy technology testing
The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy has chosen twenty energy research consortiums to be eligible for €100 million a year in state funds. Their selection came after a nationwide competition as part of Germany’s ‘Energiewende’, its transition to renewable and sustainable energies.
Exotic alloys: what are they and when do you use them?
Materials with high alloy content, known as super alloys or exotic alloys, offer enhance performance properties including excellent strength and durability, and resistance to oxidation, corrosion and deforming at high temperatures or under extreme pressure. Because of these properties, super alloys make the best spring materials for demanding working conditions, which can be encountered across various industry sectors.
Aberdeen Uni students take title with RS support
A student team from Aberdeen University was supported by RS Components as it achieved Best Newcomer in the hydrogen prototype category of the Shell Eco-marathon programme this month, for an ultra-energy-efficient car.
Precise atomic clock receives a performance upgrade
Microchip has announced, via its Microsemi subsidiary, theMHM-2020hydrogen maser atomic clock that improves typical long term stability performance by nearly ten times over the previous generation MHM-2010. Building on the MHM-2010’s long service life and cost of ownership legacy, the MHM-2020 offers an upgraded user experience with a colour touch panel display and secure network management port.
