ČSN EN IEC 62282-8-101

This part of IEC 62282 addresses solid oxide cell (SOC) and stack assembly unit(s). It provides for testing systems, instruments and measuring methods to test the performance of SOC cell/stack assembly units for energy storage purposes. It assesses performance in fuel cell mode, in electrolysis mode and/or in reversible operation. This document is not applicable to small button cells that are designed for SOC material testing and provide no practical means of reactant utilization measurement, or to single-chamber SOC. This document is not intended to be applied to fuel cell/stack assembly units for power generation purposes only, since this is covered in IEC TS 62282-7-2. Therefore, test methods are not included in this document that are applicable to fuel cell mode only and that are already described in IEC TS 62282-7-2. This document is intended for data exchanges in commercial transactions between cell/stack manufacturers and system developers or for acquiring data on a cell or stack in order to estimate the performance of a system based on it. Users of this document may selectively execute test items suitable for their purposes from those described in this document. Users can also substitute selected test methods of this document with equivalent test methods of IEC TS 62282-7-2 for SOC operation in fuel cell mode only.
