Mark Davis joined the Heat Transfer and Alternative Energy Systems Group in June 2000 after completing his mechanical engineering master's degree at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. Mr. Davis was also a Cooperative Education student with the group from 1995 to 1998. Since 2001, Mr. Davis has worked on a project to develop a rating methodology for residential fuel cell systems that would communicate the real-world performance of such systems to potential consumers. The electrical and thermal performance of three residential fuel cell systems has been investigated. Using the measured data, Mr. Davis has drafted a proposed rating methodology and developed empirical performance models. Mr. Davis sits on ASME's PTC-50 committee for Performance of Fuel Cell Power Systems and has participated in IEA Annex 42: The Simulation of Building Integrated Fuel Cell and Other Cogeneration Systems. Mr. Davis is also tasked with performing short-term characterization of building-integrated photovoltaic modules on the group's mobile solar tracking test facility. Since 2000, the performance of more than 20 modules has been measured with respect to irradiance, temperature, solar spectrum, and angle of incidence. This information has been used to predict the long-term performance of like modules for comparison with long-term measurements. | |||
