    FUEL CELLS
    PEM FUEL CELL –
    HUMIDIFIER
    Proper water management systems
    need to be implemented in the proton-
    exchange membrane fuel cell to insure
    for optimal performance. This results
    in several components being added to
    the air side of the fuel cell, increasing
    the complexities.
    • Detailed design of the humidifier.
    • Determining the power requirement
    of the air side compressor.
    • Calculating the heating or cooling
    needed for the air stream to reach
    the fuel cell stack temperature.

    GmbH utilized
    Flownex SE as their tool of choice to
    optimize the alkaline water electrolysis
    plant. Analyses of the system
    behaviour at critical modes, for
    example at a sensor failure could be
    done.

    ELECTROLYSIS
    ELECTROLYSIS CYCLE
    Flownex can be used to simulate the
    system components in an electrolysis
    proces. The stack model can be
    implemented using scripts or coupling
    to third party software such as Matlab
    and Ansys.

    FLOWNEX COUPLING WITH MATLAB
    CO-SIMULATION WITH FLOWNEX AND MATLAB
    Flownex SE currently supports two methods of co-
    simulating with MathWorks MATLAB:
    1. Use MATLAB to call Flownex in GUI mode to solve
    and extract values returned to MATLAB program as
    variables (booleans, integers, doubles, strings,
    options).
    2. Use a Flownex script to call a MATLAB program in
    a console to run and return variables from the
    MATLAB program as values to Flownex.
