Advanced Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology

The advanced hydrogen fuel cell technology teaching solution offers the 2 current fuel cell technology’s  for comparison. The Kit is designed to allow students to experiment on the fundamentals of various fuel cell designs.

Supplied with a solar module, electrolyser and fuel cell, a solar-hydrogen cycle can be set up and examined.

Functionality, efficiency and characteristics of the electrolyser and fuel cell or fuel cell stack are just a few of the topics. In addition to the PEM fuel cells, an ethanol fuel cell is also included, so different technologies can be compared with one another.

Learning Objectives:

• Structure of the electrolyser and of the different fuel cells
• Properties of the electrolyser
• Characteristic curve of the electrolyser
• Properties of a PEM fuel cell
• Characteristic of the PEM fuel cell
• Properties of an ethanol fuel cell
• Characteristic of the ethanol fuel cell
• Faraday and energy efficiency of the electrolyser
• Faraday and energy efficiency of the PEM fuel cell
• Parallel and series connection of PEM fuel cells
• Hydrogen storage with the H2 storage technology
