Patent number: 12334608Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device and a method for valuating a heat dissipation capability of a test platform of hydrogen fuel cell system. A plurality of PTC heaters are connected in series or in parallel in a primary or secondary dispersion water loop to simulate the fuel cell system with different heating powers. A rotation speed of water pump and whether a PTC is operated are controlled, thereby implementing steady and dynamic tests, and a test for integrative operating condition, thereby avoiding a real machine test from controlling a plurality of parameters. Compared with the real machine of a fuel cell, it can better test the heat dissipation capability of the fuel cell system.
