Green Car Congress

DECEMBER 9, 2014

Technical topics for this FOA—which span the range of DOE interests from fossil to nuclear to renewable and low-carbon energies—include two hydrogen- and fuel-cell-related topics: fuel cell-battery electric hybrid trucks and in-line quality control devices for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells.

In this, it is leveraging its experience with automotive batteries (CAEBAT, earlier post ) and fusion (IPS for ITER). However, increased dilution leads to increased combustion instability resulting in reduced fuel-economy benefits. ORNL is developing a computational framework to automate model generation and design optimization.

The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance.
