Abstract
A variable flow ejector is presented to address the challenge of providing cost-effective recirculation of hydrogen in fuel cell systems. The ejector uses supersonic flow to provide sufficient pressure rise for the Ballard Mark 9 SSL stack used in the University of Delaware’s fuel cell hybrid buses. Details of geometry optimization via computational fluid dynamic simulation, control system design, electronic control implementation, and mechanical design are discussed. Results from testing in the final application are included, showing the ejector’s excellent performance compared to Ballard’s specifications for recirculation flow rate.
