Abstract

Hydrogen consumption measurement research platform is designed for fuel economy test of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell vehicle (PEM FCV). Hardware is constructed with industrial PC (IPC), field bus data acquisition module and device control module. RS485 field bus is selected for communication between the IPC and the modules. LabVIEW is used to develop the host computer management software. Several scheduled tests using this system verify that the platform meets the research requirement.
