Fast-dynamic operation

The polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) or proton exchange membrane fuel cell—also known as the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC)—is a lower temperature fuel cell (typically less than 100°C) with a special polymer electrolyte membrane. This lower temperature fuel cell is well suited for transportation, portable, and micro fuel cell applications because of the importance of fast start-up and dynamic operation. The PEMFC has applicability in most market and application areas. [Pg.459]

With the introduction of microreactors, transient reactor operations became interesting due to their low internal reactor volume and, thus, fast dynamic behavior. In 1999, Liauw et al. presented a periodically changing flow to prevent coke development on the catalyst and to remove inhibitory reactants in an IMM microchan-nel reactor [58]. This work was preceded by Emig in 1997, of the same group, who presented a fixed-bed reactor with periodically reversed flow [59]. In 2001, Rouge et al. [14] presented the catalytic dehydration of isopropanol in an IMM microreactor. [Pg.106]

After the start-up heating procedure, stable operation of the fuel processor needs to be achieved. Micro structured devices allow for rapid system stabilization due to the fast dynamic response at the low residence times applied. [Pg.287]

Tikhonov s theorem (Theorem 2.1) indicates a further requirement that must be fulfilled by the controllers in the fast time scale in order for the time-scale decomposition developed above to remain valid, these controllers must ensure the exponential stability of the fast dynamics. From a practical point of view, this is an intuitive requirement one cannot expect stability and control performance at the process level if the operation of the process units is not stable. [Pg.43]

The dynamic simulation file prepared in Aspen Plus is exported in Aspen Dynamics [10]. We select the flow-driven simulation mode. Aspen Dynamics files have already implemented the basic control loops for levels and pressures. Units with fast dynamics, such as the evaporator or some heat exchangers, may be handled as steady state. The implementation of control loops for the key operational units, chemical reactor and distillation columns, take into account some specific issues from the plantwide perspective, which are developed in detail in Luyben et al. [8]. [Pg.162]

Polymer electrolyte fuel cells, also sometimes called SPEFC (solid polymer electrolyte fuel cells) or PEMFC (polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell) use a proton exchange membrane as the electrolyte. PEEC are low-temperature fuel cells, generally operating between 40 and 90 °C and therefore need noble metal electrocatalysts (platinum or platinum alloys on anode and cathode). Characteristics of PEEC are the high power density and fast dynamics. A prominent application area is therefore the power train of automobiles, where quick start-up is required. [Pg.344]

In case of incorrect diagnosis or no reaction on time against abnormal event occurred due to fast dynamic of the process, the SIS/ESD (emergency shutdown) system will operate without operator intervention to stop technological process executing defined safety instrumented functions (Fig. 3) to mitigate consequences. [Pg.310]

A two-layered control strategy was described for supply chain management purposes. The strategy combines feedback controllers to account for the fast dynamics at the inventory nodes, while utilising the power of a fiilly-centralised optimisation-based model predictive controller to achieve an optimal operating policy for the supply chain network over a selected time horizon. [Pg.514]

The impact of operating conditions on lifetime is demonstrated effectively by earlier generation Ballard Power Systems fuel cell stacks used in three different applications. In this case, the same Ballard Mark 9 stack technology exhibits dramatic differences in stack lifetime (see Fig. 6.1). In addition to the variation from a very fast dynamic cycle for the car resulting in only 1000 h lifetime, to a... [Pg.150]

As introduced in Section 6.1.2, the conditions over the fiiel cell stack duty cycle have a large impact on durability. Important considerations for general-duty cycle regimes of low and high current density will be described below, along with a discussion of fast vs slow dynamic operation. [Pg.178]

Fig. 12 shows a push-pull based DC/AC converter (Jin and Enjeti, 2004), which consists of a front-end boost converter to regulate the DC voltage. A battery is connected to the intermediate DC bus to provide fast dynamic response during load-transients. The push-pull converter operates with a 50% duty ratio and provides rectangular voltage pulses at the secondary of the high-frequency transformer. The cycloconverter is sinusoidally modulated to produce a 60 Hz line-frequency voltage at the output. The push-pull converter... [Pg.338]

To achieve sufficient vapor pressure for El and Cl, a nonvolatile liquid will have to be heated strongly, but this heating may lead to its thermal degradation. If thermal instability is a problem, then inlet/ionization systems need to be considered, since these do not require prevolatilization of the sample before mass spectrometric analysis. This problem has led to the development of inlet/ionization systems that can operate at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperatures. Successive developments have led to the introduction of techniques such as fast-atom bombardment (FAB), fast-ion bombardment (FIB), dynamic FAB, thermospray, plasmaspray, electrospray, and APCI. Only the last two techniques are in common use. Further aspects of liquids in their role as solvents for samples are considered below. [Pg.279]

The rotors can be preloaded with lyophilized reagents, which can be dynamically dissolved by the addition of buffer to the spinning rotor. Multiple samples can then be introduced into each of the radial cuvettes, or a single sample can be dynamically apportioned between the multiple cuvettes, each of which contain reagents for a different enzyme reaction. Consequently, multiple samples can be monitored for the same enzyme activity, or several different enzyme activities can be measured for the same sample. The very fast data reduction offered by the online computer provides the operator with printed results as soon as the analysis is complete. This approach provides highly precise data (Table II). [Pg.182]
