Abstract

Direct Current (DC) motors can be directly powered by Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) Stacks, to obtain plants with little maintenance and good reliability. To obtain a suitable efficiency working plant, it’s necessary to correctly match the load in order to operate in proximity to the best power line of the FC stacks generator. Otherwise by a proper field current regulation of a separately excited DC motor directly powered by a FC stacks generator, it is possible to extract from the generator itself the correct power for every temperature level. The present interest for this problem has advised the Authors to perform an experimental investigation, whose results are reported in this paper, about a centrifugal water pump powered as above c/o the machines laboratory of the Mechanical Department of the University of Palermo.
