Detection of Flooding and Drying inside a PEM Fuel Cell Stack

Original language description

Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells are currently seen as the most suitable choice for implementation into daily-use applications. However, the PEM technology does not yet fulfil all the necessary requirements that the mass-market demands and proper strides toward elimination of remaining issues have to be taken. Hence, in this paper, the focus is made on water management faults, i.e. flooding and drying. More precisely, it deals with detection of them with the use of Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The EIS was successfully applied as a diagnostic tool to a fuel cell stack consisted of 80 cells without usage of any special purpose measurement equipment, where, in addition to the stack current, only voltage of the complete stack wasmeasured. The paper describes the adjustments that were made on the EIS to make it capable of handling the diagnostics of fuel cell stacks. The results of the experimental study show that the approach is successful in detecting the floodi
