The Excitation module is ready to work!
In the field of fuel cell research the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful tool to characterize electrochemical reaction process but an expensive laboratory equipment is needed to perform it.
For these reason partners of REACTT Project are working to design a platform that integrates monitoring, diagnostics, prognostics and control (MDPC) for the emerging generation of solid oxide electrolysis systems for massive production of hydrogen at low cost from renewable energy sources.
One objective of the REACTT Project is the implementation of HW/SW modules and the “Excitation Module” is one of these and now it’s ready to work!
Its main components are a power stage, a Raspberry Pi 3 single board computer for communication and processing of signals and a REACTT HAT that is board attached on top of the PI 3.
