What is a Hydrogen Fuel Cell?Operation of a PEM fuel cell
•Chemical reaction similar to a battery
•Does not need to be “charged” as long as hydrogen is supplied

Synchronization
• To correctly provide supplemental power to AMPS, our AC signal must be in phase with the system
• Why?– If the two signals are out of phase when connected to
each other, massive current spikes will appear and it will take longer for the signal to stabilize.
![Page 21: Team HydroFly: Fuel Cell](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56814930550346895db6722a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Synchronization
• Phase-Lock Loop• Fast Response
• Will accurately correct any error
– Zero-Point Crossings• Sample Rate
• Frequency
• 3-Phase Timings
