Research HighlightsPEM Fuel Cell Operation and Control
Fuel cells are a promising technology for electrical power generation, consisting of electrochemical devices that convert the chemical energy of a fuel to electrical energy. Its key characteristic is thereby its increased electrical efficiency as it avoids the intermediate generation of mechanical energy. Within our group, we focus on the modelling and explicit model predictive control of a PEM fuel cell system. In particular, our group is equipped with a fully automated PEM fuel cell pilot plant, which allows us to validate our approaches on real life systems. |
