Electrochemical impedance spectra of solid-oxide fuel cells and polymer membrane fuel cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a very useful method for the characterization of fuel cells. The anode and cathode transfer functions have been determined independently without a reference electrode using symmetric gas supply of hydrogen or oxygen on both electrodes of the fuel cell at open circuit potential (OCP). EIS are given for both polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) at current densities up to 0.76 A cm−2 (PEFC) and 0.22 A cm−2 (SOFC). With increasing current density the PEFC-impedance decreases significantly in the low frequency range reaching a minimum at 0.4 A cm−2. At even higher current densities an increasing contribution of water diffusion is observed: the cell impedance increases again. From EIS of SOFC a finite diffusion behavior is observed even at OCP, depending on water partial pressure of the anodic gas supply. This additional element reflects the influence of water partial pressure on the cell potential. The simulation of the measured EIS with an equivalent circuit enables the calculation of the individual voltage losses in the fuel cell. 相似文献

Carbon black (CB) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composites were obtained and subsequently characterized, both microstructurally (DSC and DMA) and electrically. In addition, the electrochemical performance of these materials was tested in the form of bipolar plates, expressly manufactured for this purpose and incorporated in a conventional fuel cell. The results obtained allow for the conclusion that CB incorporation into PVDF yields polymer composite materials with electrical conductivity of about 2.4 S/cm, which may be thermically processed and given any convenient shape with the means conventionally applied in the field of polymer technologies. It was found that CB concentration slightly affects the microstructural parameters of the composites (melting temperature, glass‐transition temperature, Avrami kinetic parameters, etc.). © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Three different concepts for H2–Cl2 fuel cells have been evaluated. An ordinary PEM fuel cell based on a Nafion membrane, a fuel cell based on a combination of circulating hydrochloric acid and a Nafion membrane and a system based on a phosphoric acid doped Polybenzimidazole (PBI) membrane. None of the investigated systems were able to demonstrate stable operation under the conditions used in this study, due to electrocatalyst corrosion, membrane dehydration and/or electrode flooding. All systems studied achieved open circuit voltages close to the reversible thermodynamic value for production of aqueous hydrochloric acid, suggesting formation of dissolved HCl in the electrolyte and fast electrode kinetics. 相似文献

Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) offer a high degree of design flexibility, ranging from a single cell to a massive multi-cell that can be used in various applications, including portable devices, transportation, and stationary applications. Unfortunately, the most significant barrier to the commercialization of DEFCs is getting low-cost and ethanol permeability, high conductivity performance, and extended durability of polymer electrolyte membranes, as key components that highly influence the overall performance. In this paper, the recent progress in developing the polymer electrolyte membrane for the application of DEFCs has been comprehensively reviewed. Focusing on an updated modification of polymeric materials in the last 5 years, including Nafion-based membrane, polyvinyl alcohol-based membrane, polybenzimidazoles-based membrane, chitosan-based membrane, and sodium alginate-based membrane, as well as factors and challenges that affected the performance of polymer electrolyte membranes have been discussed, including the main characterization, catalyst selection, cell design, and work in membrane and cell performance of DEFCs. All discussion addresses the strategy to improve the performance of polymer electrolyte membranes in DEFCs in order to penetrate the commercialization stages. 相似文献

Carbon monoxide (CO) can extremely diminish the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance since it is preferentially absorbed on the platinum catalyst layer blocking and reducing the number of catalyst sites available for the hydrogen oxidation reaction. To gain a good insight of CO poisoning characteristics so as to provide a remedial solution for CO-poisoned PEMFCs, a two-dimensional, isothermal, and single phase CO poisoning numerical model taking into account the transport phenomena, electrochemical reactions and multi-component gas mixture transport is developed for such purpose. Linear and bridged-bonded adsorbed CO modes were considered to occur in parallel on the highly dispersed nano-crystalline Pt/C and PtRu/C catalysts. By performing computational fluid dynamics numerical simulations, this study clearly demonstrates the CO poisoning mechanisms and characteristics of PEMFCs. The numerical results obtained are in reasonably good agreement with the experimental data showing the predictive capability of the model. 相似文献

Cell performances were evaluated with grafted polymer membranes as an electrolyte for a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). The membranes were prepared using a poly(ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene), or ETFE, film. The base polymer film was added to sulfonic groups using γ-radiation activated grafting technique as ion-exchange groups. These membranes had more suitable properties for DMFCs, i.e. higher electric conductivity and lower methanol permeability than perfluorinated ionomer membrane (Nafion). Nevertheless, the cell performance with the grafted membrane was inferior to that with Nafion. The analysis of electrode potentials vs. reversible hydrogen electrode showed larger activation overpotential for both the electrodes on the grafted membranes. We concluded that this is due to poor bonding of the catalyst layers to the grafted membranes. 相似文献

A study of a direct methanol alkaline fuel cell (DMAFC) operating with sodium conducting membranes is reported. Evaluation of the fuel cell was performed using membrane electrode assemblies incorporating carbon supported platinum catalysts and Nafion® 117 and 112 membranes. A membrane electrode assembly was also prepared by the direct chemical deposition of platinum into the surface region of the membrane. Evaluation of the chemically deposited assembly showed it to be less active than those based on carbon supported catalysts. SEM &; TEM analysis indicate that this behaviour is due to the low surface area of the chemically deposited catalyst layer. The fuel cell performance with Nafion membranes is reported and is not as good as achieved with hydroxide ion conducting membranes suggesting that Nafion may not be suitable for DMAFC operation. 相似文献

Micelle-encapsulated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were used as catalyst support to deposit platinum nanoparticles. High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images reveal the crystalline nature of Pt nanoparticles with a diameter of ∼4 nm on the surface of MWCNTs. A single proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with total catalyst loading of 0.2 mg Pt cm−2 (anode 0.1 and cathode 0.1 mg Pt cm−2, respectively) has been evaluated at 80 °C with H2 and O2 gases using Nafion-212 electrolyte. Pt/MWCNTs synthesized by using modified SDS-MWCNTs with high temperature treatment (250 °C) showed a peak power density of 950 mW cm−2. Accelerated durability evaluation was carried out by conducting 1500 potential cycles between 0.1 and 1.2 V with 50 mV s−1 scan rate, H2/N2 at 80 °C. The membrane electrode assembly (MEA) with Pt/MWCNTs showed superior performance stability with a power density degradation of only ∼30% compared to commercial Pt/C (70%) after potential cycles. 相似文献

The lack of a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM, e.g. Nafion) in membraneless, laminar flow-based micro fuel cells (LF-FCs) eliminates several PEM-related issues such as fuel crossover, cathode flooding, and anode dry-out, as we reported previously. This paper explores the media flexibility of LF-FCs by working in acidic and alkaline media, as well under “mixed-media” conditions in which the anode is in acidic media while the cathode is in alkali, or vice versa. Operating a fuel cell under alkaline conditions has positive effects on the reaction kinetics, both at the anode and cathode, while the cell performance under “mixed-media” conditions offers an opportunity to increase the maximum achievable open cell potential (OCP). The lack of media-related constraints and the simplicity of the LF-FC design allow for these experiments to be performed consecutively in a single LF-FC without changing the system, except for altering the composition/pH of the fuel and oxidant stream. The performance of LF-FCs operated with different media is described and compared. 相似文献

The geometry of micro fuel cell design influences the reactants’ mixing and the depletion at downstream of the channel and thus effects the cell performance. This paper proposes a design for membraneless micro fuel cells with an H-shaped cross-section and a small passage between the anode and cathode channels. The small passage restricts the mixing of the anode and cathode fluids in the main channel. Numerical simulations with electro-chemical reactions have been carried out to investigate the distribution and crossover of the reactants and also the mixing and depletion regions in the system. Results show that optimizing the size of the passage between the anode and cathode channels plays an important role in reducing the mixing of reactants and in increasing fuel utilization. The H-shaped design shows that the mixing region is reduced in size by about 20%, so the H-shaped design has 10 times less fuel crossover than the conventional rectangular design. Moreover, fuel utilization is increased by about 8% with respect to that of the conventional rectangular design. 90° angles between the passage and the anode and cathode channels provide the best layout for this H-shaped design. The aspect ratio 0.083 for the anode and cathode channels exhibits 23% higher fuel utilization than the conventional rectangular design. Moreover, the size of the passage has a significant influence on the boundary layer thickness, the depletion region and the current density. A micro fabrication of the H-shaped design was made and the open circuit voltages were measured. The results are compared with those in the available literature. 相似文献
