Numerical 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 کاملParametric Study of Operation and Performance of a PEM Fuel Cell Using Numerical Method
Output characteristics of fuel cells are affected by a large number of parameters such as geometry, dimensions, construction materials and conditions of supplying fluids. In this paper a mathematical model followed by a two-dimensional numerical approach has been presented to study the fuel cell parametrically. Effect of oxygen concentration at gas diffusion layer entrance, temperature and ...
متن کاملEffect of Sealing Gas Washer Design on a PEM Stack Fuel Cell Performance
In this paper we study the performance of a PEM stack fuel cell after 900 hours of operation. We tried to identify any voltage degradation and its causes. Microscopic cracks on some parts of MEA mainly due to uniformity of pressure, stress concentration and elongation of membrane in the edge of GDL has been identified as the most important cause of this gradual degradation. High contact resista...
متن کاملOptimizing the Performance of a Single PEM Fuel Cell
A three-dimensional steady-state electrochemical mathematical model is developed where the mass, fluid, and thermal transport processes are considered, as well as the electrochemical reaction phenomena. The influences of the parameters of interest, which include porosity, permeability, and the thickness of the gas diffusion layer, and the inlet gas stoichiometric ratio on the performance of fue...
متن کاملPEM fuel cell electrodes
The design of electrodes for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is a delicate balancing of transport media. Conductance of gas, electrons, and protons must be optimized to provide efficient transport to and from the electrochemical reactions. This is accomplished through careful consideration of the volume of conducting media required by each phase and the distribution of the respe...
