Project
Supervisor
The project aims to electrochemically characterize a PEM electrolyser using the current interrupt method. This project builds on the research project conducted by Martinson et al (2014). The project aims to further develop the existing electrical circuit model to successfully characterise the PEM electrolyser. This method must then be validated against existing characterisation methods such as Electrochemical Impedance spectroscopy. Furthermore, the project aims to implement this characterisation method in such a way that real time monitoring is possible.
