Isothermal ice crystallization kinetics in the gas-diffusion layer of a proton-exchange-membrane fuel cell.
Nucleation and growth of ice in the fibrous gas-diffusion layer (GDL) of a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) are investigated using isothermal differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Isothermal crystallization rates and pseudo-steady-state nucleation rates are obtained as a function of subcooling from heat-flow and induction-time measurements. Kinetics of ice nucleation and growth are...
متن کاملDynamic investigation of hydrocarbon proton exchange membrane Fuel Cell
Sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) is categorized in a nonfluorinated aromatic hydrocarbon proton exchange membrane (PEM) group and considered as a suitable substitute for common per-fluorinated membranes, such as Nafion, due to wider operating temperature, less feed gas crossover, and lower cost. Since modeling results in a better understanding of a phenomenon, in this study a dynamic o...
متن کاملNumerical study on the performance prediction of a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell
An electrochemical analysis on a single channel PEM fuel cell was carried out by Computational Fuel Cell Dynamics (CFCD). The objective was to assess the latest developments regarding the effects of change in the current collector materials, porosity of electrodes and gas diffusion layer on the fuel cell power density. Graphite, as the most applicable current collector material, was applied fol...
متن کاملAn analytic model of membrane humidifier for proton exchange membrane fuel cell
An essential requirement for an operating PEM fuel cell is providing proper water content in the membrane. To avoid water flooding an appropriate water balance is required. Here, an analytic model of a planar membrane humidifier for PEM fuel cell is proposed where the effect of dimensional parameters includes membrane thickness, membrane area and channel hydraulic diameter are investigated. A N...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
A full three-dimensional, single phase computational fluid dynamics model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with both the gas distribution flow channels and the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) has been developed. A single set of conservation equations which are valid for the flow channels, gas-diffusion electrodes, catalyst layers, and the membrane region are developed and numer...
