>Hydrogen fuel cell hybrid locomotive
氫燃料混合動(dòng)力車下線
The first China-developed hydrogen fuel cell hybrid locomotive was rolled off the production line of CRRC Datong Co on Wednesday in Datong City, North China's Shanxi province.
1月27日，我國(guó)自主研發(fā)的首臺(tái)氫燃料混合動(dòng)力機(jī)車，在山西省中車大同電力機(jī)車有限公司成功下線。
The locomotive is designed to run at a speed of 80 km per hour, with 700 kW of continuous power for 24.5 hours. Its maximum traction load on a straight track exceeds 5,000 tons.
此次下線的氫燃料混合動(dòng)力機(jī)車設(shè)計(jì)時(shí)速達(dá)到每小時(shí)80公里，持續(xù)功率700千瓦，滿載氫氣可單機(jī)連續(xù)運(yùn)行24.5小時(shí)，平直道最大牽引載重超過5000噸。
"The locomotive uses a combination of a hydrogen fuel cell system and a high-power lithium battery," said Zhai Wanming, of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
