Abstract

An apparatus includes an electric generator that includes a fluid inlet configured to receive hydrogen at a first pressure, a turbine wheel configured to expand the hydrogen and rotate in response to expansion of the hydrogen flowing into an inlet of the turbine wheel and out of the outlet of the turbine wheel, a rotor coupled to the turbine wheel and configured to rotate with the turbine wheel, a stationary stator, the electric generator to generate an alternating current upon rotation of the rotor within the stator, and a fluid outlet configured to output hydrogen at a second pressure less than the first pressure. The apparatus includes a power electronics system electrically connected to an electrical output of the electric generator and to receive alternating current from the electric generator. The power electronics can condition the generated electrical current to supply power to various types of loads.
