Fuel Cell Rust: Myth or Reality? A Guide to Maintaining Your Fuel Cell

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on concerns about potential rusting in the Thames and Kosmos Fuel Cell car due to residual water in the fuel cell. The key point raised is that rusting is contingent on the material composition of the fuel cell; specifically, if it is made of steel, the presence of water could lead to rust. The inquiry highlights the importance of understanding the materials used in the product to assess the risk of corrosion effectively.

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
