Basics
- This page aims to list a Construction Set that lists everything related to Micropower
Consists Of
- Open Source Micropower Fuel Cell
- This may be “doable” with COTS PEM Fuel Cells , if using hydrogen
- Ideally a similarly sized SOFC running on Propane or Butane would be ideal
- Open Source Micropower TEG (Essentially a Blowtorch and a TEG + Heat Sink “stack”
- Not the most efficient, but easily done, and makes DC Power with little conversion required)
- Open Source Micropower Gas Turbine
- This would be incredibly difficult, but neat
- Larger 1kw or so scale can be done, re the Dynajet (GenSet) etc
- Smaller may be impossible short of Chip Scale Micropower Turbines etc
- Efficiency would likely be worse for small models as well
- Open Source Micropower Genset
- Open Source Micropower Genset - Spark Ignition
- This would be derived from an RC Spark Ignition Engine / Nitro Engine / Model Engine
- Open Source Microfluidic Hydrogen Production Chip
- Open Source Mini Fuel Tank
Uses
- Open Source Microfluidics Construction Set
- Open Source Micro Universal Power Supply
- USB C + USB C Cabling for Power Delivery
Allows For
- Energy Dense Power Storage
- Usage of Portable Electronics in Situations Without Large Electric Supply Chains, But With Immense Fuel Supply Chains (Such as Disaster Relief) (Lots of Diesel Fuel for Vehicles and Some Generators, but not much else etc)
- Near Instant Recharging (Just Swap and/or Refuel The Fuel Tank and Go)
