Abstract :
In order to further understanding the behavior of PEM fuel cell and optimize their performance, it is necessary to perform measurements in real time. The measure of internal impedance of a fuel cell in load is of great importance. In this work, we present the impedance measurement method of a PEM fuel cell by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy method (EIS), as well the study of an electronic load for the implementation of the measurement technique. The theoretical results are obtained by a simulation with PSPICE software.
