Abstract
Fuel Cell Powering system and method minimizing the number of motive drive sources and controlling fuel/air ratios by employing differentials including variable speed mechanisms between compressors and between compressors and expanders; by utilizing flow control devices for separate fluid streams including separate exhaust streams; by utilizing independent compressor/expander chambers; and by injection of water into exhaust streams prior to expansion.
