Kurze Beschreibung des Gerätes (maximal 5000 Zeichen):
For the experimental investigation of fuel cells and hydrogen combustion engines, a comprehensive hydrogen infrastructure has been created at the Center for Mobile Propulsion, CMP for short, which supplies the test benches. The continuous hydrogen supply is realised with hydrogen trailers. Up to two trailers can be connected to the distribution network in parallel. This enables continuous test operation and long-term or endurance testing. In addition to the mainly used hydrogen quality of 5.0, other hydrogen qualities are available from the gas storage. For example, the effect of insufficient hydrogen quality on the catalytic converter of the fuel cell and the resulting ageing phenomena can be investigated. The flexible high-voltage infrastructure of the test field enables tests with different power outputs up to more than 500 kW. This means that propulsion systems for heavy-duty applications such as trucks and rail applications can also be suitably investigated. This infrastructure is used, for example, in research projects such as "X-EMU". In this project, a fuel cell hybrid powertrain for regional trains was developed, which is to be used on routes without continuous supply of electricity. In addition in the Realtime Connected Test Laboratory, a connection of the test benches to the specially constructed battery garage for testing of traction batteries is possible and allows the testing of full-scale hybrid systems. To set up particularly space-intensive test systems, several test benches of the CMP can be coupled in real time. In addition, a climate chamber is available for the investigation of temperature effects, for example frost start behavior.
