Device for testing the performance of a hydrogen sensor modified from the morris prototype
Jair Gibran Arenas Salcedo
ESIQIE, Mexico
A
hydrogen permeation sensor based on the Morris
prototype was designed, constructed and tested in
this work. The cylinder was changed from a disc shape
to a parallelepiped shape to facilitate the adhesion of
the Nafion membrane and to decrease the potential H
leakage on the edges of the cylinder. To test the ability of
the sensor to detect hydrogen permeation, a device was
designed that comprised two interconnected cells operating
simultaneously. This device detects the permeation of
H by the sensor and the potential reduction of a passive
film. The sensor was calibrated, and the calibration curve
was shown to be consistent with the Nernst equation.
