Abstract

An experimental apparatus for determining characteristics, including the power, of fuel cells. The apparatus contains at least three and a maximum of 15 resistors, whose resistance correspond to a profile of the characteristic to be expected. In addition, an ammeter and a voltmeter with a maximum of two measurement ranges which are typical of the power range corresponding to one or more fuel cells is provided. This makes it considerably easier to carry out experiments, particularly by trainees with little prior training.
