Fuel Cell Testbed

This fully outfitted testbed is for both component and full sized system testing, covering the range of 10s of watts to 120 kW. Lab resources that support this testing include dynamic loads up to 170 kW, a variety of plumbed high pressure gases (H2, CO, CO2, Propane, etc.), a 200 psi natural gas compressor, and 5 liquid fuel tanks. Analytical equipment, ranging from gas chromatographs to impedance analyzers, are available to evaluate fuel conversion processes, process control stability, generated by-products, degradation, and overall system efficiency.
