  1. Team 04032Delphi CorporationSolid Oxide Fuel Cell Durability Test Stand Mechanical Engineers Electrical Engineers • Wai Meng Ng • Richard Yang • John Bagby • Joshua Gannon • Michael Scholl • Gregory Tyminski • David White Faculty Mentor • Margaret Bailey, Ph.D., PE Delphi Contact • Chris Mergler SOFC Durability Test Stand

  2. Subgroup Structures SOFC Durability Test Stand

  3. Stand • Preliminary Design • 1.5” x 1.5” 80/20 extruded aluminum built 36” tall • Double Anchor Bolt Fasteners for assembly • 4 lengths 80/20 top rails supporting top plate • Post PDR Suggestions • 32” height of stand • Elimination of 4 supporting 80/20 top rails • Final Decisions • 2” x 2” 80/20 extruded aluminum used due to in-stock supply • 80/20 corner brackets and joining plates used for assembly due to in-stock supply • 32” height of stand • Top rail elimination SOFC Durability Test Stand

  4. Stand and FEA • Maximum Deflection under 700lb Load: 0.003in SOFC Durability Test Stand

  5. Enclosure • Preliminary Design • 80 / 20 Extruded Aluminum, 1” x 1” Cross Section • Supporting Structure • Cast Acrylic Plexiglas • Toggle Clamp Attachment for enclosure removal • Excellent Clarity • 150 degree F tolerance • Firewall • 1850 degree F tolerance • Rubber Seal • Fulfills airtight requirement • Aluminum Plate • Due to high temperature requirement at exhaust outlet • Post PDR Suggestions • Hinges for enclosure opening • Reduces manual lift of enclosure to supporting position on the stand base • Top Exhaust for CO startup leak • Extra air draw through enclosure to reduce CO emissions into the room • Movable position of top plate within enclosure • Gives better inline positional placement of exhaust of SOFC to enclosure exhaust opening SOFC Durability Test Stand

  6. Enclosure • Final Decisions • Hinges are to be used to open enclosure with support braces for a propped position on stand • No Top Exhaust addition • Relay on sensors and Labview within enclosure to shutdown stand if necessary • Movable plate within enclosure • Top plate is anchored at its vertical position • Enclosure hood is vertically movable • Manual disassembly and reassembly of supporting 80/20 for vertical movement of enclosure • Enclosure movement provides robust placement of SOFC in comparison to hood exhaust outlet SOFC Durability Test Stand

  7. FuelDelivery System Fuel Supply Delivery System • System supplies natural gas/diesel/gasoline fuels to SOFC. • Refueling is accomplished without interrupting the fuel flow to the SOFC. • Fuel Pump supplies liquid fuel at 500kPa to fuel injector. • Redundant Automatic shutdown safety feature. SOFC Durability Test Stand

  8. FuelDelivery System • Swagelok Components • Warren Rupp Sandpiper II Diaphragm Pump • McMaster-Carr High Pressure Fuel Tanks SOFC Durability Test Stand

  9. ControlsComponent Interface • Labview 6.1 • The main view of the controls were already developed by Delphi. Our task was to integrate what we had with the given components. • Enclosure data, fuel pump enable and enclosure warnings. • E-stop is to be tied in with the e-stop sequence for SOFC unit. SOFC Durability Test Stand

  10. Data Acquisition • Data collection for enclosure’s thermocouples and gas sensors. • Detection of warning & e-stop violations. • Data logging writes to a new file each day. • Stand DAQ VI can be incorporated into Main VI as a sub VI with one input and two outputs. • Input for initialization • Two outputs for data values and warning signals.

  11. Financial Summary • Components Removed From Budget By Delphi Corporation • Many Swagelok, exhaust and computer components, stocked in house • Field Point Modules $4.2K • $12K Load Bank Replaces $17K Load Bank • Gas Sensor System $4.5K SOFC Durability Test Stand

  12. Tasks Outstanding • Finalize and debug Controls & DAQ Virtual Interface • Full installation into Laboratory environment: Plumb Air, NG, Exhaust lines SOFC Durability Test Stand
