In this paper a Micro Zinc-Air Fuel Cell (MZAFC) has been constructed to provide the required electrical energy for small-scale vehicles. The manufactured cell provided a very smooth voltage-current characteristic curve which is very important for design purposes. The cell has been assembled and tested on a small vehicle. %K Zinc-Air Fuel Cell (ZAFC) %K Chem-E-Car competition %U http://www.ijee.net/Journal/ijee/vol4/no2/6.pdf
