Abstract
Fuel cells (FC) are crucial in advancing sustainable transportation and energy production, though their industrial and automotive deployment remains limited. This research focuses on in-situ measurement solutions to enhance fuel cell performance, safety, and durability. Two instruments are being implemented: multiparameter fiber-optic (FO) sensors embedded in an additively manufactured bipolar plate (BP) for minimal invasive in-cell measurements and an online water analysis device for detecting degradation in FC wastewater. These solutions enable enhanced in-situ chemical and physical FC measurements.
