Our trip to New Zealand was all about expressing the shear scope of the landscape and the fantastic riding it offers. With a small population and virtually no trail access issues, the riding is almost limitless. Probably like it was fifty years ago in the U.S. We travelled throughout the South Island from Queenstown to the Craigieburn Forest, experiencing amazing singletrack and the laid back NZ lifestyle. A big thanks to Kashi Leuchs, our NZ distributor and all-aournd good guy for playing tour guide on the trip.

Londonderry police propose changes to rules for sellers of used goods
According to Londonderry Police Detective Sean Doyle, the process of monitoring local business transactions is extremely time-consuming and isn't very cost effective. After looking into the matter further, police said purchasing a software system from Business Watch International (BWI) would be more efficient.
The system would require all vendors of secondhand goods to keep online records of their merchandise, including photos. Doyle said the police department would provide each business owner with a web camera, though proprietors would be on their own if they wanted to purchase an additional or replacement camera.
During a lengthy discussion Monday evening, Londonderry police officials discussed the legality of having the pawnbrokers report the same way as secondhand dealers.
According to Doyle, local police have already discussed the matter with town prosecutor Kevin Coyle as well as County Attorney Blanchard. He said both agreed the new software follows town and state statutes.
The Salem Police Department recently began using BWI, but Councilor Joe Green said some Londonderry residents still had many concerns on the matter.
"These are important questions: What are the initial costs? Is it cost prohibitive?" Green asked police.
Police officials said startup costs are roughly $3,000 to purchase the software that would be monitoring the town's dozen or so secondhand vendors.
The list of stores includes not only traditional pawnshops, but also jewelry stores selling secondhand items, consignment shops and businesses dealing with sales of scrap metal, and other recyclables.
According to Doyle, the updated ordinance also calls for an increase in licensing fees for applicable businesses.
As it stands now, it costs shop owners $50 for a new business license and $25 for an annual license renewal. Under the new ordinance, it would cost them $250 each year, with those funds to help pay for software costs.
The new ordinance would further shift costs to business owners by enacting a $1 per transaction fee.
Patricia O'Neil, who owns one of the stores that would be affected by the changes, said the changes could cost her around $10,000 and would add further challenges to a small business struggling in an already-strained economy.
"It's just affecting our livelihood," O'Neil told the council.
"Believe me, you wouldn't want to be a criminal and sit with me if you had a box of stolen goods," she added.
Councilor Jim Butler agreed that updates to the ordinance could, in fact, "pose undue burdens on small businesses."
"I think we still have a lot of question on this," Councilor John Farrell said.
The board unanimously agreed to continue the hearing until the May 6 meeting.

A PROMINENT community volunteer who served his village for years has died aged 54.
Mike Hudson was a founding member, director and trustee of the Marcham Community Group, founded in 2010.
His work included running a minibus service for the elderly, providing financial advice to the group and also the opening and administering of the Marcham Village Shop, opened in July 2012.
Mr Hudson, friends said, was a well-known face around Marcham and his barbecue had been wheeled out for many village events over the years.
He also ran his own business, Assured Investment Consultants Limited, since 1995 and was a financial advisor for some four decades.
Michael John Hudson was born in Aldermaston, Berkshire, on September 17 1959, to parents Ken and Bunty.
He and his younger sister Margaret lived there with their parents until 1967, when they moved to Benson, Oxfordshire.
There, he attended Benson Primary School and later the Abbey School, in Berinsfield, before finally attending the Peers School, in Littlemore. He was also an alter boy at Benson's parish church.
After leaving school at 18, he took a job at Halifax Building Society, in Abingdon, and on his first day met his 18-year-old future wife, Jenny, when she showed him to his desk.
By August 1980 they had married and moved in to a flat in Abingdon. Because of company rules regarding marriage, Mr Hudson moved to Halifax's Oxford branch, but later left to work for Scottish Amicable Insurance and then later for Assured Investments.
He was there first as a financial advisor and then as the sole director.
In 1981 he and his wife bought a house in Grove, but moved back to Abingdon in 1984. The couple's first daughter, Natalie, was born in 1985, followed by Katie in 1988.
The family moved to Marcham in 1999 and Mr Hudson began what was to become a long service to the community by volunteering to drive the elderly to shopping trips in the village minibus. This was followed by his joining the Marcham Community Group in 2010, of which he became a stalwart.
In his spare time Mr Hudson played golf, was a skilled cook and also followed Formula 1.
He celebrated his 25th wedding anniversary with his wife and daughters with holiday to New York.
Michael Hudson died on May 22 in the John Radcliffe Hospital, after a long period of illness. He is survived by his wife and two daughters.
A funeral service took place on June 2 at All Saints' Church, Marcham.

Gravity took four years to make but it's worth the wait, as this is the must-see movie of the year.
"You have to admit one thing, you can't beat that view" says veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) as he gazes down on the vast beauty of planet Earth. This is his final command before retirement and the old-timer is joined by a new-comer Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock), a medical engineer enjoying her first spacewalk.
"What do you like about being up here?" Kowalsky asks Stone "The silence" she replies "I could get used to it." But then disaster strikes, the tranquility is suddenly shattered by a deadly shower of meteorites hurtling towards them. Killer shrapnel from a splintering Russian satellite which destroys their shuttle, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone, tethered to nothing but each other and spiralling out into the blackness.
"I have a bad feeling about this mission" Kowalsky had earlier told mission control. Words that now come back to haunt both ailing astronauts as the deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth and any chance for rescue. No-one in space can hear their screams and the only way home with diminishing supplies of oxygen is to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.
Director Alfonso Cuarón has painstakingly created a breathless adventure, a phenomenal cinematic thrill ride of sound and vision, which delivers both the majestic wonder of space and the compelling emotions of the human face.
George Clooney we know is one of the great screen actors, easy on the eye and effortless in creating instantly engaging characters, whether in or out of a spacesuit. So the real revelation here is Bullock, in a brilliantly fierce and furious performance. Dr. Ryan Stone is haunted by her past but desperate to survive the present danger, determined to return home, with what she believes 'will be one hell of a story.'
But who would have thought that it would be Sandra Bullock's floating tears, six hundred miles above the Earth that would be a defining moment for 3D cinema. Proving once and for all that wearing 3D glasses to watch movies can be more than just gimmicky spectacle but heartbreaking drama too.
Growing up, my generation were obsessed with the future and the frontiers of space. In school we would watch together the almighty lift-offs of U.S. shuttles from Cape Canaveral, dreaming of a life beyond the stars. Gravity takes us closer, like no other film before, to that place where our imaginations were sparked.
So the only gravitational pull that you should now feel, is the irresistible tug towards your nearest cinema to see this mesmerising film.
Gravity (Cert 12a) is on general release from Thursday 7th November.
Brian Henry Martin is an accomplished documentary filmmaker and UTV's resident film critic, appearing regularly on UTV Live Tonight.
No matter what the film, there's a good chance Brian has seen it.

As the big platform owners turn cloud storage into just another feature, how do the independent services survive? History isn't comforting for the owners of those companies.
Microsoft today released a Surface Pro 3 firmware update, available through Windows Update. The fixes, which will be installed automatically on new devices, are intended to resolve power and reliability problems seen in review devic...
In the month since its launch, these 12 reviewers from top tech sites reviewed the Surface Pro 3. One called it "the best everything device ever made." Another called it "the greatest laptop-tablet hybrid you don't need." Here's your executive summary of an amazingly wide range of opinions.
Can the Surface Pro 3 replace your Windows laptop? Probably. Can it replace a MacBook Air for a professional writer whose workflow is built around that device? Probably not. Unfortunately, Microsoft's key messages at last month's launch event encouraged reviewers to try exactly that, with predictable results.
Microsoft's OneNote is a completely cross-platform app now, which means it can go you with anywhere. In this gallery, I present six of my favorite OneNote productivity secrets to help you get your personal and work projects organize...
One tiny update included in a larger rollup package delivered to Windows 8.1 users today includes some small but welcome changes to the OneDrive sync client. Here's what's inside.
If a lot of what Apple announced today at WWDC seems familiar, that shouldn't be a surprise. Increasingly, the owners of big computing platforms are building features designed for a multi-device world. And in that world, PCs and Macs are no longer at the top of the food chain.
Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 is a gorgeous piece of hardware, hugely improved from its predecessors. It's not for everyone, but is it right for you?
The official spec sheet for the Surface Pro 3 is short on details about the exact components found inside. I've uncovered details about the exact i3, i5, and i7 CPUs used in the new devices, as well as their support for multiple monitors.
Microsoft's latest entry in the Surface family is part tablet, part laptop, and it's significantly different from its predecessors. Here are some more details in response to reader questions.
Microsoft's latest entry in the Surface Pro line is billed as a tablet that can replace your desktop. On paper, it's a better deal than Apple's MacBook Air. WIll you buy it?
In New York City this week, Microsoft's new CEO Satya Nadella will host a press event for the company's Surface line. There's plenty of speculation about products, but the real challenge lies on the business side. Can new management turn Surface into a smooth-running machine?
Microsoft's free cloud storage isn't just for Office files. You can use its rich set of features to share files, photos, and documents. Here are six tricks to help you get more out of OneDrive.
More than three years ago, in his last year as Apple's CEO, Steve Jobs laid out a vision for Apple to move aggressively into cloud services. What went wrong?
Apple's latest courtroom drama fizzled, with the company winning a verdict against Samsung that didn't even come close to paying its legal bills. Is it time for Apple to end its proxy war against Google's Android?
If you think you understand how technology markets work, prepare to adjust your thinking. Western markets, which have dominated for the past decade, are slowing. The biggest growth is in the East, where the rules are completely different.
The line between tablet and PC used to be well defined. Increasingly, though, that distinction is being blurred as tablets become capable of more powerful business tasks and as PCs become more mobile. And then there's the fastest-growing category of all.
Dropbox has become one of the world's most popular cloud storage services by focusing on consumers. But businesses have different needs, and a recent controversial move by the company offers an opportunity to take a fresh look at alternative services that might be more suitable for your business.
For years, one of the best bargains in tech was Microsoft's free Custom Domains service, which allowed anyone to assign a custom domain to free Hotmail and Outlook.com accounts. Effective today, Microsoft has begun "winding down" the service.
This week Windows XP ended an amazing run of more than 12 years, but its influence lives on. Here's a brief of history of Windows in the 21st Century.

Green Is Good
By D. T. Max
Mark Tercek, the head of the Nature Conservancy, recently took a tour of the largest chemical-manufacturing facility in North America: the Dow plant in Freeport, Texas. The Nature Conservancy, which is responsible for protecting a hundred and nineteen million acres in thirty-five countries, is the biggest environmental nongovernmental organization in the world. Tercek, accompanied by two colleagues, had come to Freeport because the facility—a welter of ethylene crackers and smokestacks built next to a river that flows into the Gulf of Mexico—is at the center of a pilot collaboration that he hopes will reshape conservation. The key idea is to create tools that can assign monetary value to natural resources. Tercek, a former partner at Goldman Sachs, thinks that environmental organizations rely on fuzzy science and fail to harness the power of markets. With the help of sound metrics drawn from the world of finance—"a higher level of accountability," in his words—some of the ecological harm caused by the very same corporations can be undone. Nudging big business in a green direction, he believes, can do far more good than simply cordoning off parcels of Paradise.Continue reading»

Check this page for update about the registration's opening in the coming weeks. Email questions to: firstname.lastname@example.com
About the World Justice Forum
The World Justice Forum® is the largest international event hosted by the World Justice Project. It is a global gathering at which prominent leaders from all parts of the world and a variety of disciplines come together to articulate how the rule of law affects their disciplines and regions and to develop collaborative actions to strengthen the rule of law.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by kellym15 40 th Birthday Trip Great experience from the quick and easy check-in, spacious rooms and fabulous restaurants. 21 November 2014
Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by OB19808 Best accommodations so far We chose this hotel because I am a rewards member in IHG group and was able to book using points. This was the best experience I have had. I have stayed at other Intercontinental, but this was by far the best. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. We stayed there for a Rock N Roll marathon weekend. It was highly convenient that the finish line was at the Venetian! 20 November 2014
Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by travel runner belissimo! Beautiful room with step down living room,big comfortable bed,gorgeous marble bathroom. The view from the 17th floor was incredible,we faced the mountains and pool area,during the day we could see the mountains in the background,at night we could see the lights of the Vegas strip. The property was huge with many different types of restaurants to choose from,including an Italian one that overlooked the canal with the gondoliers singing. Shopping available was mostly high end stores on the property,although there was a big mall close by with a wide variety of stores. The only slightly negative things we noted where the pillows were too soft(no neck support),and our room had the smell of food cooking downstairs at different times of the day. Would not hesitate to stay here again! 20 November 2014
Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by Guest-2014 Too busy to attend Guests Not worth the money, it's a beautiful so definitely visit this property but would not recommend to stay in it. 17 November 2014
Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by synlubedealer Great hotel with top of the line accommodation !!! Stayed 2 nights at the Venetian. Check in was easy at the front desk, my room was upgraded due to being a IHG Rewards Club member. The room was perfect it had a great view of the pool area and was a beautiful suite...large size with a comfortable bed and sitting area with a couch. Bath room was perfect tub and shower. We loved the pool...and hot tub. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a high end hotel/casino when staying in Vegas. Staff was excellent, room service was fast and it was good food. 17 November 2014
Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by PBRStreetGang Overrated Good Location; but: If You self park at this property; it is a long walk to the registration desk. You have to walk through a shopping mall with at least a mile of shops etc. I did not want to go shopping before checking in. The check in process took more than 30 minutes. They need more personnel at the registration desk. This casino/hotel has limited food options and NO BUFFET. The room had a distinct smell of urine, and would offer a nice view of Las Vegas if only the windows were clean. The mattress was soft and of very poor quality, for what is supposed to be a high end hotel. Not much value here; next time in Vegas I will consider other options. If You stay here: Lower Your expectations. 15 November 2014
Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by AB111 Big rooms and great ambiance Nice to stay in Vegas and between the hotels there is so much to experience. Was very surprised at value in room service breakfast. Good price and set up beautifully in room. Food court was also decent value. And Walgreens also attached for all reasonably priced snacks. 14 November 2014

21. A method as claimed in
This invention relates to electrochemical fuel cells, more particularly electrochemical fuel cells which employ hydrogen as a fuel and receive an oxidant to convert the hydrogen to electricity and heat. This invention is even more particularly concerned with the humidification requirements of such an electrochemical fuel cell employing a proton exchange membrane.
Generally, a fuel cell is a device which converts the energy of a chemical reaction into electricity. It differs from a battery in that the fuel cell can generate power as long as the fuel and oxidant are supplied.
A fuel cell produces an electromotive force by bringing the fuel and oxidant into contact with two suitable electrodes and an electrolyte. A fuel, such as hydrogen gas, for example, is introduced at a first electrode where it reacts electrochemically in the presence of the electrolyte and catalyst to produce electrons and cations in the first electrode. The electrons are circulated from the first electrode to a second electrode through an electrical circuit connected between the electrodes. Cations pass through the electrolyte to the second electrode. Simultaneously, an oxidant, typically air, oxygen enriched air or oxygen, is introduced to the second electrode where the oxidant reacts electrochemically in presence of the electrolyte and catalyst, producing anions and consuming the electrons circulated through the electrical circuit; the cations are consumed at the second electrode. The anions formed at the second electrode or cathode react with the cations to form a reaction product, such as water. The first electrode or anode may alternatively be referred to as a fuel or oxidizing electrode, and the second electrode may alternatively be referred to as an oxidant or reducing electrode. The half-cell reactions at the two electrodes are as follows:
In practice, fuel cells are not operated as single units. Rather, fuel cells are connected in series, stacked one on top of the other, or placed side by side. A series of fuel cells, referred to as fuel cell stack, is normally enclosed in a housing. The fuel and oxidant are directed through manifolds to the electrodes, while cooling is provided either by the reactants or by a cooling medium. Also within the stack are current collectors, cell-to-cell seals and insulation, with required piping and instrumentation provided externally to the fuel cell stack. The stack, housing, and associated hardware make up the fuel cell module.
Fuel cells may be classified by the type of electrolyte, which is either liquid or solid. The present invention is primarily concerned with fuel cells using a solid electrolyte, such as a proton exchange membrane (PEM). The PEM has to be kept moist with water because the available membranes will not operate efficiently when dry. Consequently, the membrane requires constant humidification during the operation of the fuel cell, normally by adding water to the reactant gases, usually hydrogen and air.
The proton exchange membrane used in a solid polymer fuel cell acts as the electrolyte as well as a barrier for preventing the mixing of the reactant gases. An example of a suitable membrane is a copolymeric perfluorocarbon material containing basic units of a fluorinated carbon chain and sulphonic acid groups. There may be variations in the molecular configurations of this membrane. Excellent performances are obtained using these membranes if the fuel cells are operated under fully hydrated, essentially water-saturated conditions. As such, the membrane must be continuously humidified, but at the same time the membrane must not be over humidified or flooded as this degrades performances. Furthermore, the temperature of the fuel cell stack must be kept above freezing in order to prevent freezing of the stack.
Cooling, humidification and pressurization requirements increase the cost and complexity of the fuel cell, reducing its commercial appeal as an alternative energy supply in many applications. Accordingly, advances in fuel cell research are enabling fuel cells to operate without reactant conditioning, and under air-breathing, atmospheric conditions while maintaining usable power output.
The current state-of-the-art in fuel cells, although increasingly focusing on simplified air-breathing, atmospheric designs, has not adequately addressed operations in sub-zero temperatures, which requires further complexity in the design. For instance, heat exchangers and thermal insulation are required, as are additional control protocols for startup, shut-down, and reactant humidifiers.
Where a solid polymer proton exchange membrane (PEM) is employed, this is generally disposed between two electrodes formed of porous, electrically conductive material. The electrodes are generally impregnated or coated with a hydrophobic polymer such as polytetrafluoroethylene. A catalyst is provided at each membrane/electrode interface, to catalyze the desired electrochemical reaction, with a finely divided catalyst typically being employed. The membrane/electrode assembly is mounted between two electrically conductive plates, each which has at least one fluid flow passage formed therein. The fluid flow conductive fuel plates are typically formed of graphite. The flow passages direct the fuel and oxidant to the respective electrodes, namely the anode on the fuel side and the cathode on the oxidant side. The electrodes are electrically connected in an electric circuit, to provide a path for conducting electrons between the electrodes. In a manner that is conventional, electrical switching equipment and the like can be provided in the electric circuit as in any conventional electric circuit. The fuel commonly used for such fuel cells is hydrogen, or hydrogen rich reformate from other fuels (�reformate� refers to a fuel derived by reforming a hydrocarbon fuel into a gaseous fuel comprising hydrogen and other gases). The oxidant on the cathode side can be provided from a variety of sources. For some applications, it is desirable to provide pure oxygen, in order to make a more compact fuel cell, reduce the size of flow passages, etc. However, it is common to provide air as the oxidant, as this is readily available and does not require any separate or bottled gas supply. Moreover, where space limitations are not an issue, e.g. stationary applications and the like, it is convenient to provide air at atmospheric pressure. In such cases, it is common to simply provide channels through the stack of fuel cells to allow for flow of air as the oxidant, thereby greatly simplifying the overall structure of the fuel cell assembly. Rather than having to provide a separate circuit for oxidant, the fuel cell stack can be arranged simply to provide a vent, and possibly some fan or the like to enhance air flow.
Catalytic burners are also known and operate on a principle similar to fuel cells, but at an accelerated kinetic rate and increased temperature. A fuel, for example hydrogen, is oxidized through direct contact with oxygen or air at a rate induced by the presence of a catalytic bed, for example, ceramic beads containing small amounts of platinum on the surface.
The by-product of the chemical reaction is similar to that of a fuel cell, but without any generation of electricity:
The higher consumption rate of the reactants and concomitant heat release reflects the fact that the reaction occurs through direct contact rather than through a proton/electron transaction. Catalytic burning is flameless, and occurs at a temperature between that of a fuel cell's �cold combustion� and that of an open-flame combustion. Flow rate can be pulsed or modulated to achieve varying heat and moisture profiles. Hydrogen catalytic burning requires no pilot flame or spark to be initiated.
An example of a proposal for a catalytic burner is found in an article entitled �Catalytic Combustion of Hydrogen in a Diffusive Burner� by K. Stephen and B. Dahm at pages 1483-1492 of Catalytic Combustion of Hydrogen in a Diffusive Burner.
In the prior art, humidification through membrane stack provided humidification only, without imparting significant temperature shift. In the present invention, both humidification and temperature are imparted to the stream prior to admission to the stack.
In accordance with a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a tubular reactor, for catalyzing reaction of hydrogen and a gaseous oxidant, the tubular reactor comprising:
Preferably, the housing and the body of the catalyst are both generally cylindrical and have length substantially longer than the diameter than the tubular reactor.
In accordance with a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a fuel cell system comprising at least one fuel cell, each fuel cell comprising:
Preferably, the fuel cell system comprises a plurality of fuel cells, forming a fuel cell stack.
The stack can comprise an air-breathing stack, including a plurality of channels extending through the fuel cell stack for permitting free flow of ambient air as the oxidant through the fuel cell stack, there being at least one channel for each fuel cell, wherein the catalytic reactor is mounted below the fuel cell stack. The catalytic converter is configured to receive air as an oxidant through the second inlet thereof in excess of the stoichiometric quantity of air required for combustion of fuel within the catalytic reactor, whereby heated and humidified air is discharged from the outlet of the catalytic reactor. The outlet of the catalytic reactor is mounted below the channels of the fuel cell stack, whereby heated and moistened air flows upwardly through the channels of the fuel cell stack from the catalytic reactor.
The catalytic reactor can be either generally tubular or it can be disk-shaped, configured for flow of fuel and oxidant generally along the central axis of the reactor.
A further aspect of the present invention provides a method of operating a fuel cell system comprising a plurality of fuel cells, each fuel cell comprising an inlet for fuel, an anode having a catalyst associated therewith for producing cations from fuel, a fuel manifold connected between the inlet and the anode for distributing fuel to the anode, an oxidant inlet means for supplying oxidant, a cathode having a catalyst associated therewith and connected to the oxidant inlet means for producing anions from the oxidant, said anions reacting with said cations to form water on said cathode and an ion exchange membrane disposed between the anode and the cathode, for facilitating migration of cations from the anode to the cathode, while isolating the fuel and oxidant from one another, the method comprising
For initial start-up below a preset temperature, the method can comprise initially supplying fuel and oxidant only to the catalytic reactor to generate a flow of heated and moistened oxidant, and passing the heated and moistened oxidant through the fuel cell to preheat the fuel cell, and commencing supply of fuel to the fuel cell, once the fuel cell reaches a desired temperature. Then, after start-up and after the fuel cell has reached the desired temperature, a sufficient quantity of the oxidant and the fuel are supplied to the reactor, to maintain the oxidant supplied to the fuel cell system at a desired humidity level.
Yet another aspect of the present invention provides a method of operating a fuel cell system comprising a plurality of fuel cells, each fuel cell comprising an inlet for fuel, an anode having a catalyst associated therewith for producing cations from fuel, a fuel manifold connected between the inlet and the anode for distributing fuel to the anode, an oxidant inlet means for supplying oxidant, a cathode having a catalyst associated therewith and connected to the oxidant inlet means, for producing anions from the oxidant, said anions reacting with said cations to form water on said cathode and an ion exchange membrane disposed between the anode and the cathode, for facilitating migration of cations from the anode to the cathode, while isolating the fuel and the oxidant from one another, the method comprising:
This aspect of the method can include:
For a better understanding of the present invention and to show more clearly how it may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying drawings which show a preferred embodiment of the present invention and in which:
Referring first to
Within the enclosure 12, there is a fuel stack 14 comprising, in known manner, a plurality of PEM fuel cells, and described in greater detail in relation to
The fuel cell stack 14 in
In accordance with the present invention, the fuel or hydrogen supply line 16 is connected to a catalytic reactor 50, which includes a catalytic reactor bed 57 (
The catalytic reactor 50 is generally tubular, has respective inlets 52 and 54 for hydrogen and air, and a tubular outlet 56. A flow of heated, humidified fuel exits from the tubular outlet 56, and will then flow to the fuel inlet of the fuel cell stack.
Reference will now be made to
On the hydrogen side, a hydrogen supply line 70 can include a pressure gauge and a flow meter (not shown), and comprises a main hydrogen supply line 72 to the fuel cell stack 62 and a secondary supply line 74 to the catalytic burner or reactor. A solenoid valve 73 is provided in the main supply line 72, and a solenoid valve 75, a flash arrestor 76 and a non-return valve 77 are provided in the secondary line 74. A fuel purge valve 78 with a controlling solenoid valve 79 are provided as for the first embodiment.
The tubular, catalytic reactor 50 is again provided and the hydrogen inlet 52 is again provided at the side of the reactor.
An air supply line for the catalytic reactor 50 is indicated at 80 and includes a pump or meter 82, and a respective non-return valve 84. The air supply line 80 is connected to a respective inlet 54. Optionally, a pressure gauge and a flow meter can be provided.
The outlet 56 of the tubular reactor 50 is connected by a line 85, to two branch lines 86 and 87, which are connected by respective solenoid valves 88 and 89 to the supply line 72 and to the air supply line 66. Although not shown, the stack 62 can optionally include a recirculation pump. Excess hydrogen can, in a known manner, be purged through the outlet 68 or purge line 78, to prevent build-up of contaminants.
The tubular reactor 50 can be run to provide either a humidified and heated flow of air or a humidified and heated flow of hydrogen. These two modes of operation are detailed below.
To generate a flow of heated and humidified air, excess air is delivered by the pump 82, relative to the hydrogen flow through the line 74. In the tubular reactor 50, the oxygen reacts with the hydrogen to generate heat and moisture. This results in a heated and moistened air flow exiting through the outlet 56. Then, the valve 88 is maintained closed and the valve 89 is opened, so that the heated and moistened air flow passes through to the main air supply line 66, to be entrained into the air flow passing to the fuel cell stack 62.
Correspondingly, to generate a heated hydrogen flow, the valve 88 is opened and the valve 89 closed. Then, excess hydrogen is supplied through the line 74, as compared to air supplied through the main fuel line 82. The flow is dead ended and is only exhausted during purging when the exhaust solenoid is open. However, the flow can be controlled using control valves when not operated in dead-ended mode. In the tubular reactor 50, the oxygen in the air reacts with some of the hydrogen to generate heat and moisture. The flow of hydrogen, with residual nitrogen, together with heat and moisture, then exits from the outlet 56. This flow of heated and humidified nitrogen and hydrogen gas passes through valve 88 into the main fuel line 72.
It will be appreciated that where heated and humidified hydrogen is supplied to the fuel line 72, and as air is used as the oxidant, this does result in nitrogen being injected into the fuel gas supply. For this reason, the purge line 78 will need to be used, to prevent the build-up of nitrogen within the fuel cell stack 62. Alternatively, a flowing system can be used at all times.
It is important that, in the tubular, catalytic reactor 50, complete reaction takes place. In other words, it is essential that, in the two modes of operation, residual hydrogen is not delivered to the main air line 66, nor residual oxygen delivered to the hydrogen supply line 72. This could result in potentially flammable gas mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen being delivered to the fuel cell stack 62, which is dangerous. To ensure complete reaction, proper topology and morphology of the reactor must be designed, essentially to ensure adequate residence time over the full range of flow rates.
It will also be understood that it is possible to heat and humidify both of the fuel and air supply lines. Because of the different requirements of the two supply lines, this would require the provision of two separate tubular reactors, each of which would be configured to operate in one of the two modes outlined above.
Turning to
The tubular reactor 50 comprises a tubular reactor housing 51. At the lower end thereof, a T-connector 100 is provided. The T-connector 100 has three coupling flanges 102, one of which is connected to the tubular housing 51, and the two others of which provide connections for the hydrogen supply lines. At the top end, the tubular reactor 50 includes a connector 104, again provided with connection flanges 106, one of which is connected to the tubular housing 51 and the others of which provide connections to supply lines. While a housing 51 of circular cross-section is shown, it will be understood that any suitable cross-section, for example a square cross-section, could be used.

Thank you, Dale, for your adventurous spirit!
My friend Dale is an avid or should I say rabid mushroom hunter. He travels all over Oregon and Washington in search of mushrooms whenever he has a few hours or days to spare from work in Portland. Because he covers so many miles and makes frequent quick stops, he discovers a wide range of mushroom species fruiting where most folks never go. He's not a commercial picker, just truly curious about fungi, especially the many edible species. I am lucky to be the recipient of his cell phone photos when he finds something interesting and his generosity when he is around Central Oregon sharing his edibles. Dale works hard for what he finds. He makes it look easy, but he puts in much time, travel and expense into this "addiction" (Dale call it this himself.) This is a shout-out to Dale for taking mushroom hunting to another level and allowing me to be part of his adventure vicariously.
Here are today's photos:

HRC Hosts "On the Cusp of Equality" Presentation in Orlando
October 28, 2011 by Admin
This post is by Gina Duncan, president of MBA Orlando
HRC's "On the Road to Equality" bus tour rolled into sunny Orlando, Florida this week to celebrate our accomplishments and assess if we truly are on the "Cusp of Equality." Orlando has many accomplishments that we can be proud of. Because of the extraordinary work of many dedicated LGBT activists and supportive straight allies, Orlando has passed a Human Rights Ordinance, passed Domestic Partner Benefits for County and City employees, established an LGBT Chamber of Commerce building, launched a Supplier Diversity Initiative, and is now working with City and County elected officials to pass a Domestic Partner Registry.
Being part of last stop on the "Road to Equality" tour also gives Orlando a chance to say good-bye to Joe Solmonese, who for the past 7 years has led our fight for equal rights nationwide. Joe will be sorely missed, but the foundation he has laid and the momentum he has created will live on in the Human Rights Campaign and in all of us who work for equality.
The "On the Road to Equality" bus tour has been a great success and the Metropolitan Business Association, Orlando's LGBT Chamber of Commerce is proud to support its stop in Orlando.
