Abstract :
Motorcycles are the most popular vehicles for motorised individual transport in Asia. Millions of motorcycles cause the majority of traffic-based air pollution. A prototype of a clean, silent and fuel efficient hydrogen fuel cell powered. Motorcycle demonstrates an alternative. The fuel cell motorcycle prototype named ldquoPiosrdquo is the latest model of a series of fuel cell experiment vehicle. For the study various fuel cell hybridised drive trains were calculated, examined and real world tests. This work contains important lessons for designers of any fuel cell vehicles, other implementations of fuel cell systems in an environment of rapidly fluctuating electrical load.
