Description
Summary:Commercially available gas, liquid, and chemical sources of oxygen for use with fuel cell batteries are compared. Cryogenic sources are shown to be the most efficient on a weight and volume basis. Chemical generators are satisfactory for applications requiring rather large quantities of oxygen gas at infrequent periods. Compressed gas cylinders are convenient when small quantities of oxygen are desired. A bibliography of selected publications during the past five years is included.
