Carbon Corrosion in PEM Fuel Cell Dead-Ended Anode Operations
This paper investigates the effects of dead-ended anode (DEA) operation on the electrode carbon corrosion of the Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell. A reduced order isothermal model is developed focusing on the species concentration along the channel and associated membrane phase potential. This model explains, and can be used to quantify, the carbon corrosion behavior during DEA operatio...
متن کاملAnode-Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells with Thin Film Electrolyte for Operation at Reduced Temperatures
In order to reduce the operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), anodesupported cells incorporating thin film (~10 μm) electrolytes in conjunction with anode/electrolyte and cathode/electrolyte interlayers were studied. Anode supported button cells were prepared through a conventional approach and were analyzed via Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Polarization, and Electrochem...

متن کاملDraft: Modeling and Experiments of Voltage Transients of Pem Fuel Cells with the Dead-ended Anode
The operation of PEM fuel cells (PEMFC) with dead-ended anode (DEA) leads to severe voltage transients due to accumulation of nitrogen, water vapor and liquid water in the anode channels and the gas diffusion layer (GDL). Accumulation of nitrogen causes a large voltage transient with a characteristic profile whereas the amount of water vapor in the anode is limited by the saturation pressure, a...
متن کاملThe effect of anode bed geometry on the hydraulic behaviour of PEM fuel cells
The influence of the anode bed geometry on the hydraulic behaviour of PEM fuel cells is assessed. Three basic geometrical patterns are studied, namely the interdigitated, the parallel and the serpentine ones, in their original, as well as in modified forms of them, in which their angles have been smoothed. Issues concerning the anode flow field of a fuel cell, the influence of the Reynolds numb...
