Hydrogen bus

[elephant]

The Flemish public transport operator (bus and tram) company De Lijn (= the line) announces the entry into service of a prototype hydrogen bus from 1/07 on the Lier Antwerpen line (12 connections per day)

This bus was developed by the Van Hool company. No need to surf their site, they don't talk about it. But if you type on google:
van hool fuel cell, you will find a lot of articles.

This bus is powered by a fuel cell.

we will no longer be able to say "smoke! it's Belgian"

Hair pie! and name of a furry!
they were the first to shoot

how do they store hydrogen? stored volume and Autonomy of a bus? how much does it cost to fill up?

Hello

well if they are powered by a PC there is no need to store; we produce on demand.

Maloche is right: you need a tank, if not two. I guess there are bottles.
Do a google search on: Van Hool fuel cell, there are quite a few answers

Hello everyone,
I wanted to inform you of a program on France inter at 14 p.m. today, August 14. I'm standing on the breach trying to save it for you.

To be continued.

It's already over?

If you managed to capture send me the file by email (if it does not pass on the .info): https://www.econologie.com/contactez-nou ... logie.html

to store hydrogen?
I thought it was already difficult with compressed air?

in any case I don't want to be there when there is a traffic accident ... BOOOOOOOOOOOM nothing more around, even with a kevlar tank like with LPG ...

again for rockets, but from there to fish in the city center, but what does the safety do?

H2 is produced "as and when"

[Christophe]

Well you can store it but hardly, there is a news about it: https://www.econologie.com/stockage-de-l ... -3430.html

All H2 storage technologies are set out in .pdf ...

Otherwise a combustion-explosion of H2 is less dangerous than an explosion of hydrocarbons...car the H2 (and therefore its flame) rises very quickly in altitude ... the heat on the ground is therefore "relatively" low. In the hidenbourg accident, the people who remained in the gangway (which therefore burned down) did not die ... The dead were those who jumped ...

In addition, the ignition energy of H2 is, it seems to me, lower than that of petrol (and therefore LPG because very close) in stoichiometry. The only drawback of H2 is its flammability range depending on its much higher concentration in air ...

And yes the (false) received ideas die hard ...

i have the file i'm trying to put it in mp3 right now. 100MB as in mpa.
The show is complete, so music and report on the laundry (interesting).
Me who likes this forum I would have liked certain points to be more in-depth on the program. But OK You have to satisfy the majority.
