Energy Storage Systems Resource Kit

Green Engineering: Energy Storage Systems
See how National Instruments customers use NI products to solve real-world energy storage challenges. Also view tutorials and videos explaining the technology that enables these applications.

Kit Contents



  • Tutorial: High-Voltage Measurements and Isolation
    Making high-voltage measurements can be hazardous to the equipment, to the unit under test, and to you and your colleagues. Learn how to provide an insulation barrier, using isolated measurement devices, between the user and hazardous voltages, to ensure that the system is safe.


  • Tutorial: Fuel Cell Testing - The NI Way
    Learn the basics of fuel cell testing, explore measurement challenges, and see how NI hardware and software can be used in a fuel cell test system.


  • HIL Reference Architecture
    View the reference architecture for a typical Hardware-in-the-Loop system.


  • Case Study: ENG Systems, Sanyo Develop Better Batteries by Using LabVIEW
    See how ENG Systems and Sanyo developed a flexible battery test system capable of keeping pace with changing product requirements using NI LabVIEW.


  • Case Study: HIL Test Systems for the BMW Hydrogen 7
    See how BMW developed engine simulators for the BMW Hydrogen 7, a new hybrid vehicle designed to combine the pleasure of driving a BMW with the benefits of practically emission-free mobility, using National Instruments software and hardware to design a complete HIL testing environment for engines.


  • Case Study: LabVIEW Automates Fuel Cell Research
    See how Bloomy Controls automated complex and lengthy experiments, involving hundreds of controlled parameters for the evaluation of chemical catalysts used in the production of hydrogen for fuel cells using a flexible, LabVIEW-based user configurable control and data acquisition system.


  • Case Study: Designing of an Automated Fuel Cell Validation Stand Using Compact FieldPoint
    See how Viewpoint Systems combined slow safety clocks and faster PID control loops, as well as precisely and reliably controlling a fuel cell test stand that implements advanced control algorithms using NI Compact FieldPoint and LabVIEW Real-Time.
