Tech Talk - Balance of Plant - Fuel Cell Systems - BoP Part 1 - Hydrogen Technology - Hyfindr Ley

- Learn about the basics and the process behind the design of fuel cell systems and the Balance of Plant (BoP). Steven and Christoph discuss designing a PEM fuel cell system. They start with the basics of the anode and cathode sides of the fuel cell and the components involved in the process. Christoph explains that the Balance of Plant (BoP) includes all components in the system, such as the anode system, cathode system, and cooling system, required to run the fuel cell. The anode system comprises the isolation valve, distribution valve, and pressure regulator to reduce the hydrogen pressure down to a level suitable for the anode. The hydrogen comes from a storage tank with a pressure of 700 bar, which is then reduced depending on the operations strategy. Also, the process of selecting the appropriate parts for the fuel cell stack is discussed.

Executive Summary of Tech Talk Script:
During this Hyfindr Tech Talks, Steven introduced Christoph from AE Driven, who discuss designing a PEM fuel cell system. The fuel cell system involves the anode and cathode sides, with the catalyst in the middle, and a reaction between oxygen and hydrogen. The byproducts are oxygen and water from the cathode side, and surplus hydrogen and water droplets from the anode side.
The Balance of Plant (BoP) includes all the components in the system required to run the fuel cell, such as the anode system, cathode system, and cooling system. The anode system comprises the isolation valve, distribution valve, and pressure regulator to reduce the hydrogen pressure down to a suitable level for the anode. Hydrogen comes from a storage tank with a pressure of 700 bar, which is then reduced depending on the operations strategy.
The cathode system includes the air supply, humidifier, and exhaust system. The air supply provides the oxygen required for the reaction, which goes through the humidifier to keep the membrane hydrated. The exhaust system removes the excess water generated by the reaction.
The cooling system involves a coolant pump, heat exchanger, and radiator. The coolant pump circulates the coolant through the system to remove excess heat generated by the reaction, which is then transferred to the heat exchanger and ultimately dissipated through the radiator.

Hi thanks for this excellent presentation ! Quick question: is there any difference between a low temperature and high temperature PEMFC systems?
Very interesting. Thank you for explaining. I saw that there was no heat exchanger in the circuit. At what point do you need a heat exchanger to push out the heat?
American needs you，
Excellent Video, which tool was used for this Simulation.
Great work, and well explained, please could you provide the PDFs. Best regards
