The company aims to change the way homes and businesses generate their electricity, reducing costs and lowering emissions, through its fuel cell technology.
One challenge in developing these low-cost products was in understanding the principles governing accurate and durable temperature measurement which would allow the company to achieve highly accurate temperature control.
Paul Barnard, Director – Fuel Cell Module Design Authority at Ceres, had worked with Dr Robert Morgan from the Â̲èÖ±²¥ on various consultancy projects.
In 2013 the company began a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with the Â̲èÖ±²¥ to bring thermal and fluid dynamics expertise to the company. The KTP in thermometry aimed to measure temperature accurately and reliably, at the required product cost point, inside the system.
