Based on use of multi-dimensional models, this investigation simulates the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell by varying the channel pattern. In the one-dimensional model, the porosity of the gas diffusion layer is 0.3. The model reveals the water vapor distribution of the fuel cell and demonstrates that the amount of water vapor increases linearly with the reduction reaction adjacent to the gas channel and the gas diffusion layer. Secondly, four novel tapered gas channels are simulated by a two-dimensional model. The model considers the distributions of oxygen, the pressure drop, the amount of water vapor distribution and the polarization curves. The results indicate that as the channel depth decreases, the oxygen in the tapered gas channel can be accelerated and forced into the gas diffusion layer to improve the cell performance. The three-dimensional model is employed to simulate the phenomenon associated with four novel tapered gas channels. The results also show that the best performance is realized in the least tapered gas channel. Finally, an experimentally determined mechanism is found to be consistent with the results of the simulation. 相似文献

Effect of gas diffusion layer compression on the performance in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell
This study investigates the gas permeability, bulk density, thickness and conductivity of two types of gas diffusion layer (OC14, NC14) as a function of the compressed thickness. The compression of a gas diffusion layer reduces gas permeability and contact resistance. The performance is measured using a single proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with an active area of 25 cm2. The results provide an optimum value of compression ratio that maximizes the cell performance. For OC14 the optimum compression ratio is about 64%, whereas for NC14 it is 59%. The best performances are 375 mA/cm2 and 296 mA/cm2 at 0.7 V, respectively. These results concerning the balance between compression and performance provide vital information for the fabrication of stacks and support for industrial applications. 相似文献

Development of a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) mass flux model, using conventional transport theory, is presented and used to predict the fluid phase superficial velocity, methanol and water molar fluxes, and the chemical species (methanol and water) dimensionless concentration profiles in the polymer electrolyte membrane, Nafion® 117, of a DMFC. Implementation of these equations is illustrated to generate the numerical data as functions of the variables such as the pressure difference across the membrane, methanol concentration at the cell anode, temperature, and position in the membrane. 相似文献

A 5-cell proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) stack with different types of membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) was tested to compare their performances and electrochemical characteristics. The experimental data were obtained with a stack of 5 cells and active area of 125 cm2. The stack consisted of different Nafion® and hydrocarbon membranes with the same types of electrocatalyst. The membranes were installed in different cells and in the same stack. Polarization and voltage measurement data were obtained to compare their performances at different temperatures and anode humidity conditions. Also, impedance spectroscopy data were obtained in similar manner to compare the differences in their resistance. 相似文献

Steady-state operation of a compressor for a proton exchange membrane fuel cell system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The performance of a system consisting of a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell coupled to a centrifugal air compressor is simulated. Two modes of operation of the system are investigated: one in which the speed of the compressor is constant, and the other in which the compressor speed is varied with the electric load on the fuel cell stack. The operating characteristics of the compressor and the PEM fuel cell stack and their influence on the system efficiency are analyzed for a step change in the stack current. The effects of the fuel cell stack back-pressure and the electric load on the compressor power consumption and the system efficiency are studied. It is found that the system efficiency is higher when the fuel cell stack is operated at a constant oxygen gas stoichiometry by varying the compressor speed instead of at a constant compressor speed. The system model can be used to determine the rotation speed of the compressor for various electric loads. 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

A steady-state, isothermal, one dimensional model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), with a polybenzimidazole
(PBI) membrane, was developed. The electrode kinetics were represented by the Butler–Volmer equation, mass transport was described
by the multi-component Stefan–Maxwell equations and Darcy’s law and the ionic and electronic resistances described by Ohm’s
law. The model incorporated the effects of temperature and pressure on the open circuit potential, the exchange current density
and diffusion coefficients, together with the effect of water transport across the membrane on the conductivity of the PBI
membrane. The polarisation curves predicted by the model were validated against experimental data for a PEMFC operating in
the temperature range of 125–200 °C. There was good agreement between experimental and model data of the effect of temperature
and oxygen/air pressure on cell performance. The model was used to simulate the effect of catalyst loading and the Pt/carbon
ratio on cell performance and, in the latter case, a 40 wt.% Pt/C ratio gave the highest peak power density. 相似文献

Spreading of liquid droplets over solid surfaces is a fundamental process with a number of applications including electro-chemical reactions on catalyst surface in membrane electrode assembly of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell and direct alcohol fuel cell. The spreading process of droplet on the PEM porous substrate consists of two phenomena, e.g., spreading of droplet on PEM surface and imbibition of droplet into PEM porous substrate. The shrinkage of the droplet base occurs due to the suction of the liquid from the droplet into the PEM porous substrate. As a result of these two competing processes, the radius of the drop base goes through a maximum with time. The variation of droplet base and front diameter with time on the PEM porous substrate is monitored using microscope fitted with CCD camera and a PC. It is seen that the droplet base diameter goes through a maximum with time, whereas the front diameter increases continuously with time. Further, methanol droplet spreading and wetting front movement was faster than that for ethanol and deionized water. As the PEM porous substrate is wetted and imbibed well by the methanol compared to ethanol, it is expected that the cross over of methanol would be higher than that of ethanol in direct alcohol fuel cell. It should be noted that cross over of alcohol from anode side to cathode side through membrane is detrimental to the fuel cell operation. The experimental data on the variation of droplet base and wetting front diameter with time is predicted by the model available in the literature. 相似文献

A logarithmic term is applied to account for the charge transfer overvoltage with most empirical polarization curve fitting
equations for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. The logarithmic term applied with state-of-the-art fitting equations
is proportional to the logarithm of the cell output current density. This provides good fitting characteristics with large
current densities, but results in significant deviations from measured current/voltage characteristics if small current densities
or no-load operation are investigated. A modified logarithmic charge transfer overvoltage term utilising the exchange current
density and an internal cell current density is therefore introduced to provide accurate fitting characteristics with small
current densities and no-load operation. Fitting characteristics of this modified polarization curve fitting equation are
investigated and compared to standard fitting equations. 相似文献

A method for the sulfonation of PEEK-WC, a glassy poly(ether ether ketone) with sulphuric acid is presented. Depending on the reaction time, polymers with ion exchange capacity (IEC) from 0.30 to 0.76 meqH+/g are obtained, as determined by titration with NaOH solutions. The thermal properties of the polymers were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, showing that the glass transition temperature increases with increasing degree of sulfonation, from 224 °C for pure PEEK-WC to 246 °C for the polymer having an IEC of 0.76 meqH+/g. The sulfonated polymers were used to prepare proton exchange membranes for possible application in fuel cells. Dense membranes were prepared by solvent evaporation, using DMA as the solvent. The transport properties of the membranes were determined in terms of water uptake and permeability for hydrogen and oxygen. Electrochemical characterization was performed by measuring cell voltage and power density curves as a function of current density at different working temperatures and the results were compared with those of a commercial Nafion membrane. A power density of 284 mW/cm2 was obtained for S-PEEK-WC membrane at 120 °C in H2/air fuel cell, slightly above the corresponding value found for Nafion. 相似文献

Fuel cells are considered a promising energy conversion technology of the future owing to inherent advantages of electrochemical conversion over thermal combustion processes. In the polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) a proton-conducting polymer membrane is utilized as solid electrolyte, having to allow the transport of protons from anode to cathode yet block the passage of reactants (e.g. H2, O2) and electrons. Although PEFC technology has matured substantially over the past two decades, technological barriers, such as insufficient durability and high cost, still delay commercialization in many applications. In this contribution, we review current fuel cell membrane technology and outline approaches that are taken to improve the functionality as well as the chemical and mechanical stability of proton conducting polymers in fuel cells. 相似文献
