Abstract:

A single cell voltage monitor system was designed and fabricated for PEM fuel cell application in this paper. This system consists of a hardware module using data collection chip, and the LabVIEW functioning as software module. It features the high-accuracy, strong anti-interference performance and real-time data display and data collection. It can be used to guarantee the stable operation of PEM fuel cell. This system was successfully applied in the performance study on a PEM fuel cell stack, and good experimental results were obtained.

Key words: proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), single cell voltage monitor system;  , data collection, LabVIEW
