Through this project, the National Science Foundation provides partial funding for the acquisition of instrumentation and equipment for the development of a Fuel Cell Laboratory in the University of Michigan for Control and Diagnostic Systems studies. The experimental set-up allows the implementation of multivariable controllers, fault detection, and diagnostic algorithms for the regulation of reactant flow and pressure, stack temperature, and membrane humidity. It is anticipated that the development and testing of real-time control and diagnostic systems will accelerate the use of Fuel Cells by enhancing their safety, increasing their efficiency, and ensuring their robustness in real world applications.The equipment acquisition places the University of Michigan in a prominent position in FC research. The university's strategic location and collaborations with the automotive industry generates synergistic mechanisms for research and for training the future technical and corporate leaders in the field.

通过这一项目，国家科学基金会提供部分资金，用于购买仪器和设备，以便在密歇根大学建立一个燃料电池实验室，进行控制和诊断系统研究。实验设置允许实施多变量控制器，故障检测和诊断算法的反应物流量和压力，堆栈温度和膜湿度的调节。预计实时控制和诊断系统的开发和测试将通过增强燃料电池的安全性、提高其效率并确保其在真实的世界应用中的鲁棒性来加速燃料电池的使用。此次设备收购使密歇根大学在燃料电池研究中处于突出地位。该大学的战略位置和与汽车行业的合作产生了研究和培训该领域未来技术和企业领导者的协同机制。
