sNOx emissions of fuel cell system

NOx emissions are currently regulated in marine applications in various parts of the world. Due to these requirements, a fuel cell system is required also to conform to the existing limits.

While in the automotive world hydrogen and low temperature fuel cells are being considered, the economics of the marine industry is likely to drive to the use of diesel fuels, also with fuel cell systems. This requires onboard fuel reforming, which may lead to NOx emissions.

sAmbient condition variation tests – cold start test

Cold start might be a problem with fuel cells in automotive applications and for startup of emergency generators in marine applications.

Unlike in stationary applications, significant warm-up times are not acceptable to the customer. In addition, systems are not kept under controlled conditions, which may lead to system freezing and subsequent damage.

It is therefore important to test the cold start performance to allow customer acceptance of fuel cell systems.

sEMC Test

With high current systems involved in propulsion systems, the radiated electromagnetic radiation could be significant. In addition, the system needs to be immune to radiation from the environment to ensure system and user safety.

EMC performance of fuel cell systems should be measured on a

prescribed driving cycle

sFuel consumption of fuel cell system on homologation cycle (H2 fuel)

Driving range, on gaseous fuels is heavily dependent on the real efficiency of the system.

All existing procedures for measuring fuel consumption of road vehicles make use of the carbon-balance method to determine the fuel consumption. This method is not applicable to a fuel cell system running on hydrogen fuel. Various solutions to these problems are being proposed

sAPU Voltage Regulation

The goal of an APU is to deliver the required electrical power while maintaining a sufficient level of voltage regulation. Voltage regulation is critical for the proper functioning of the attached electrical loads.

In this test module, a time varying pulsed load is applied to the APU, simulating the functioning of an automotive heating system. The test object considered is a hybrid APU, i.e. fuel cell system and energy storage together.

sPower Quality – Transient Response

Transient response of the fuel cell power generator depends on the power system architecture considering hybridisation by a buffer energy storage element (battery, supercapacitors…) or not.Hybridisation, depending on the system concept, could significantly reduce the power level (kW) delivered by the fuel cell generator under the working conditions and get a downsizing effect for the fuel cell generator.

This test module simulates the transient load following capability of the fuel cell power generator, by: applying a transient load profile request and measuring the response of the actual delivered load.

sDielectric Strength (high voltage)

At some point during the lifetime of a power generator, the generator will be subjected to high voltage peaks.

For approval, the power generator has to be able to withstand temporary high voltages without destruction.

sCrash Safety of a Fuel Cell System

In the event of an accident, safety is critical for transport applications. A critical aspect of this is the safe containment of systems.

This test method imposes a shock impulse on the fuel cell system (or alternatively a sustained equivalent load) to simulate the loading on the system that occurs during an accident. The system is deemed acceptable if the mountings retain the system in place.

sOverload and short circuit

In the event of an overload or short circuit condition, the fuel cell system should be capable of supplying this overload without damage to the system. This ensures system functionality in the event of a fault elsewhere in the electrical system.

This test method presents tests for marine and aviation applications.

sIdentified missing test modules / 1

Important tests to be harmonised:Noise emissionsPower performance capabilityVibration testingDurability (thermo cycling; power throughput; power degradation)Ambient condition variation tests (temperature; humidity; pressure)

These test modules were found to be important for all application areas (rail, marine, aviation, automotive), and could be harmonised among the various application areas to a large extent. Test methodologies could be largely the same for the different transport applications, while static test conditions and dynamic variations of input parameters (e.g. power cycles) could be made application specific.

sGeneral considerations on availability of tests and needs for harmonisation - Potential pre-normative research needs / 1

Only a few standards exist which are specific for fuel cell vehicles, fuel cell propulsion systems or fuel cell APUs

APU-applications of fuel cells may be very important. At present little information is available on load profiles for various APU-applications;

Application-oriented test procedures to be applied at the level of fuel cell systems are at present not available

Evaluation test procedures at the fuel cell system level could be developed as a “best practice”, but do not necessarily have to be formally standardised. Harmonisation at the European level, however, does seem useful, not only from an industry perspective, but also e.g. to enable evaluation and benchmarking of systems developed in various EU-funded projects;

Type approval test procedures are within the domain of codes and standards.For LD road vehicles these will have to be defined at the vehicle level

For HD road vehicles and most other transport applications procedures need to be defined at the “engine” level, i.e. at the level of fuel cell systems or fuel cell-driven power trains

The test cycles used for automotive type approval do not represent real-world driving. Different technologies may compare differently on the type approval test cycle compared to real-world test cycles. For fuel cell applications more insight is necessary on the impact of real-world use on efficiency and emissions;

Type approval procedures for determining engine power can not be translated directly to fuel cells.

As usual with testing, many problems in testing procedures could only be identified during the actual execution of the tests. During this process, extra information could also become available which could help as to further specify the requirements and processes involved, bringing the bringing the modules to a “best practices” levelmodules to a “best practices” level.
