University of Sydney has completed the tests of a hybrid energy storage system combining the hydrogen fuel cells, batteries and YUNASKO supercapacitors for unmanned aircraft.
Yunasko has developed special light-weight 25V / 7F supercapacitor modules for the flight testing.
According to the feedback provided by the researchers: "The new results show that the supercapacitor improves the dynamic response of the overall propulsion system and also provides load smoothing for increased fuel-cell life"
