Since 2002, Webasto has focused heavily on automotive on-board power
systems known as Auxiliary
Power Units (APUs), in which electrical energy is
produced from liquid fuels with the aid of a high
-temperature fuel cell. This technology also has mobile
applications.dehumidification evaporative

Webasto Joins With Vaillant
To Develop Fuel Cells
Vaillant will be responsible for developing this core module and other
system components into a fuel cell-powered heater and efficiently integrating
the result into

Through advances
with APUs, Webasto created a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell module
(SOFC) which, fuelled by natural gas or
heating oil, can be used for single-
family home energy generation and heat supply. It is a computerized
system sizing program
that will design systems around PF2 or other types of heat exchangers.calculations dehumidification

Given the challenges
being faced in terms of environmental
protection and rising energy prices, the
market for decentralized heating systems combined with power
generation will
grow. Fuel cells are seen as a highly promising, environmentally friendly
technology
of the future -- for applications in both automotive as well as
home energy supply.hvac technicians
With
focus
on development and manufacture of complete roof modules, sliding roof
and convertible roof systems
as well as heating/cooling and ventilation
systems, Webasto is both an original equipment and aftermarket
provider for
automotive, heavy-duty and marine applications. More information

Vaillant has worked on the development of fuel cell-powered heating
systems
for multi-family houses and light industrial applications since 1998
and has already gathered a wealth
of practical experience in the testing of
prototypes in European field trials.
"We specially designed
this heat exchanger for the HVAC+R market, it
addresses the need for lower per piece prices and it
will reduce or
eliminate any model specific tooling costs," added Grohman.numerical technicians
