Figure 4.19 shows <strong>solar</strong> radiance data on Iztech campus on a clear day (14 May<br />

2007). The maximum radiance was observed as 950W/m 2 at 13.30PM. Total daylight time<br />

which is adequate for electrolysis was about 13 hours.<br />

The <strong>hydrogen</strong> <strong>production</strong> and stack temperature data for the same day is given in<br />

Figure 4.20. The maximum <strong>hydrogen</strong> generation at 13.30PM was measured as 708ml/min.<br />

The maximum stack temperature was measured as 53.2 o C at the same time. The electrolysis<br />

continued up to 20.00PM since day time saving started on 25.03.07. Total <strong>hydrogen</strong><br />

<strong>production</strong> was calculated to be 344L at the end of the day.<br />
