To integrate a fuel cell into a vehicle platform many subsystems must be engineered to support the electrical power production of the fuel cell plant. These subsystems include the control of fuel and air supply as well as managing thermal and water throughput in the fuel cell stack. For the fuel cell plant to operate at optimum performance, one must examine the individual components that make up the “balance of plant” of the fuel cell system. Specifically, the power used to run the system must be scrutinized with the power produced by the system. Knowing how individual balance of plant components perform is the first step in design and optimization studies, as well as automated control system development. To address these issues, this paper examines how balance of plant components and subsystems affect parasitic power consumption, fuel cell power production, membrane hydration, hydrogen usage, and water production.

During the past 15 years many works have been done on Ageing Management Program (AMP) of Safety classed components in EDF. The paper will describe all the different aspects concerning these programs, and in particular the EDF step by step procedure and the major results. To-day, EDF is starting the 3rd ten-year shutdown of all these 3-loop plants (34 plants). During the associated Safety Review, a specific task is devoted to ageing effects and control of all the safety concerned components. A large list of components has been reviewed: mechanical, civil engineering, instrumentation and control, cables, non metallic components. Few non safety but important in term of availability components are considered, like turbine or some balance of plant components. A general review of results and difficulties for 40 and 60 years are presented in the paper. The second part is devoted to a short review of our procedure with IAEA guidelines. The third part will shortly describe the associated R&D program for metallic components and knowledge management associated to AMP. The major conclusions are clearly supporting the needs of international basic procedure and harmonization on the major topics.
