An Adaptive Joint Operating Parameters Optimization Approach for Active Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
The operating parameters of the active direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) are essential factors that affect performance. However, it is challenging to maintain optimal maximum output power density due system’s complexity, conditions variation, and correlations between those parameters. This paper proposes an adaptive joint optimization method for methods include numerical simulation operation Based on orthogonal tests, a BP neural network used build performance evaluation model can quantify influence combination obtained by whale algorithm (WOA) through model. experimental results show could respond accurately adaptively under different conditions. improves 8.71%.

Liquid methanol concentration sensors for direct methanol fuel cells
Liquid-fed direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) are one of the most promising candidates for portable power electronics and automotive pplications due to their potentially high-energy density, simple storage, and distribution of the fuel. The concentration of methanol in the fuel irculation loop of a DMFC system is an important operating parameter, because it determines the electrical performance...
متن کاملOptimal Concentration Control for Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
Two modifications to a reference direct methanol fuel-cell (DMFC) system are considered to improve methanol fuel utilisation. Fuel utilisation can be optimised by minimising the parasitic methanol crossover by manipulating methanol concentration in the fuel cells. Simulations of the two systems indicate that there is considerable potential to increase fuel utilisation for dynamic concentration ...

متن کاملNovel Anode Catalyst for Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
PtRu catalyst is a promising anodic catalyst for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) but the slow reaction kinetics reduce the performance of DMFCs. Therefore, this study attempts to improve the performance of PtRu catalysts by adding nickel (Ni) and iron (Fe). Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are used to increase the active area of the catalyst and to improve the catalyst performance. Elec...
متن کاملBifunctional anode catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells
Using the binding energy of OH* and CO* on close-packed surfaces as reactivity descriptors, we screen bulk and surface alloy catalysts for methanol electro-oxidation activity. Using these two descriptors, we illustrate that a good methanol electro-oxidation catalyst must have three key properties: (1) the ability to activate methanol, (2) the ability to activate water, and (3) the ability to re...
