3. FUEL CELL
The fuel and oxidizing agent are continuously and separately supplied
to the two electrodes of the cell, where they undergo a reaction. Electrolyte is
necessary to conduct the ions from one electrode to the other. Fuel is supplied
to the anode, where electrons are released from the fuel under catalyst. The
electrons, under the potential difference between these two electrodes, flow
through the external circuit to the cathode, where combining positive ions and
oxygen, reaction products, or exhaust are produced.
In contrast to a electric battery, the fuel cell generates electric energy
rather than storing it and contributes to do so as long as a fuel supply is
maintained. A fuel cell is a galvanic cell in which the chemical energy of a
fuel is converted directly into electrical energy by means of electrochemical
processes.
