โœฆ Synopsis

This paper describes the performance evaluation of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell for application to a hybrid utilization experiment involving renewable energy and a fuel cell for a residential energy system. First, experiments on characteristics of heat and power generation were carried out. Direct current electrical efficiency and heat recovery efficiency for a rated output operation were quite high: 42.5 and 49.2%, respectively. Second, characteristics of partial load, water temperature for heat recovery, start-up time, load following and exhaust gas were clarified. Finally, measurement of characteristics of a hot water tank was carried out, and it was proved that sufficient performance can be obtained even under continuous operation.

Fuel cell systems, especially those fed with hydrogen, have reached considerable performance targets in laboratory conditions with constant loads and conservative environmental conditions. However, a check of the potential of such systems in real conditions is necessary, particularly in terms of var
