Software Simulates Fuel Cells

October 27th, 2008

LMS Imagine.Lab Fuel Cells helps fuel cell manufacturers design and optimize fuel cell stacks and systems via an easily accessible one-dimensional modeling environment. With LMS Imagine.Lab Fuel Cells, users can size components, optimize architecture and geometries, and develop and test control strategies. In addition, electrochemical researchers can opt to integrate and test different gas mixtures and material solutions, and predict real-life reactions like voltage and transient temperature evolution, pressure and mass flow rates for the entire system.

LMS Imagine.Lab Fuel Cells is of particular interest to PEMFC or SOFC system integrators since it uses validated physical modeling, based on an energy exchange approach where basic elements can be easily assembled to represent a complete fuel cell system. Researcher and development can easily “try out” the performance traits of a complete system, reviewing both static and dynamic behavior. A complete solution, LMS Imagine.Lab Fuel Cells comes with the tools and multi-disciplinary libraries to build, analyze and optimize a functional digital fuel cell mock-up.
