Abstracr-As fuel cells are likely to he used in many future applications, dedicated power converters must he developed and optimized. A thorough knowledge nl the fuel cell operation is thus required for power-electronics engineers. This paper proposes a theoretical and experimental study of the behaviour of a fuel cell stack subject to current harmonics. The fundamental role of the internal double layer capacitor is demonstrated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
