| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A hydrogen reactor fueled by sodium borohydride to generate hydrogen, which is the fuel of a 3 kW fuel cell stack, was proposed and developed. In addition, a model of the reactor was derived and the PI controller for the hydrogen pressure was designed using the model. Moreover, an fuel feeding unit, which generates aqueous solution of sodium borohydride and feeds the solution to the reactor, was developed. Several boost converters with low voltage and large current input were developed and verified through simulations and experiments. Verification of the system which consists of these components was also conducted.
