Fuel cell technologies Part 3.200: Stationary fuel cell power systems – Performance test methods
The objective of this standard is to deal with conditions that can yield hazards to persons and cause damage outside the fuel cell modules and to provide guidance on how to measure the performance of stationary fuel cell power systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. It also covers operational and environmental aspects of the stationary fuel cell power systems performance. The test methods apply as follows:
- Power output under specified operating and transient conditions;
- Electrical and heat recovery efficiency under specified operating conditions;
- Environmental characteristics, for example exhaust gas emissions, noise, and so on under specified operating and transient conditions.
This standard was prepared by the Standards New Zealand P3652 committee and has been reproduced as a modified adoption of IEC 62282-3-200:2019, Fuel cell technologies – Part 3-200: Stationary fuel cell power systems – Performance test methods.
