Addressing Challenges of Fuel Cell and Electrolyzer Development using System Simulation

Gamma Technologies is organizing a webinar on, “Addressing Challenges of Fuel Cell and Electrolyzer Development using System Simulation” on 11th Jan 2023 at 3 pm to 4 pm IST. Our expert Mr. Thomas Vevaud from GT’s European office and Mr. Hitesh Chaudhari from our India office will present the solution we provide to the challenges faced by Engineers working on Fuel Cell and Electrolyzer system development. They will talk about the robust solution for fuel cell stack performance including degradation models, a semi-empirical method to model electrochemistry based on polarization curve in addition to predictive loss mechanism models. They will also discuss the approach of modeling the complexity of the fuel cell stack with electrolyte, catalyst, gas diffusion layer, bipolar plate along with physics of mass transfer, heat transfer, water crossover etc. as an integrated component using GT-SUITE to improve user experience and enable modeling flexibility. When it comes to hydrogen production electrolyzer technology has a significant role to play. Thus, we will also discuss the solutions we offer to handle the complex challenges faced by Electrolyzer system simulation engineers.     

Hydrogen is gaining traction around the world in both Internal Combustion Engine and Electrification system applications.  Fuel Cell technology has potential to offer a right solution for Heavy Duty applications where high range and fast refueling time is the primary concern. When it comes to the Fuel Cell system, it is more than just the stack. The whole vehicle model plus the balance of plant with cooling system, compressor, humidifier, control strategy etc. must work together to get optimum performance. Mr. Thomas Friedrich and Mr. Felix Kleinheinz from The Advanced Engineering team at MAHLE, GERMANY will co-present the use of system simulation for FC Heavy Duty application.  

We will have some time reserved for Q & A session with our experts. Reserve the date and time for an interesting discussion!
