Background Research

1. Google the topic at hand. Select keywords directly related to search, such as "Open Source High Pressure Electrolyzer". The best case outcome is that an open source version exists, including a developer community, and that community can be tapped for a complete solution with OSE Spec.

1. Sample results - [1] and [2], and [3] and [4]. 30 atm alkaline electrolyzer - [5].

1. Quantify the result to see if there are meaningful results, and if not, search deeper.
2. Procure phone numbers, make calls - regarding availability of data - and document in a commenting + upvoting interface such as Upvoting. Anyone can sign up for and use an instance of Disqus.
3. Conditions of satisfaction involve point-by-point meeting of OSE Specifications and documentation of such.
4. A list of critical parameters are identified for existing industry standards. Cost, LCA, fabrication, etc. Ex. Electrolyzer costs $1k/kW. For $3k we can have storage of H2 in PVC pipe - $1/watt for solar panels, $1k for an electrolyzer, and then we cook for free. [6] - up to 30 ATM.
5. Background research continues until open design is identified, or if not, a Design Rationale is constructed that embodies the critical elements of a workable design.
6. Use Rizzoma collaborative editing to capture the different design assets.
7. Reification is then proposed by providing sourcing information, building of parts, test-driven design, and other data collection until desirable results are obtained.
