A simple and fast empirical design model for a 5 kW proton exchange membrane (PEM) stack is presented in this paper. The performance analysis of the PEM stack operating on a membrane humidifying method is made through a series of experiments, including current–voltage–power characteristics, uniformity of cell unit voltages, gas pressure impact and air flux impact. Based on the above analysis, an empirical predicted model for the PEM stack has been developed by the combination of mechanistic and empirical modeling approaches to characterize and predict the voltage–current characteristics without examining in depth all physical/chemical phenomena. The good agreement between the predicted and experimental results covering a range of optimal operating conditions shows that the proposed model provides an accurate representation of the behavior for the PEM stack. 相似文献

The bipolar plates are in weight and volume the major part of PEM fuel cell stack, and also a significant effect to the stack cost. To develop the low-cost and low-weight bipolar plate for PEM fuel cell, we have developed a kind of cheap expanded graphite plate material and a production process for fuel cell bipolar plates. The plates have a high electric conductivity and low density, and can be stamped directly forming fuel cell bipolar plates. Then, 1 and 10 kW stacks using expanded graphite bipolar plates are successfully assembled. The contact resistance of the bipolar plate is investigated and the electrochemical performances of the fuel cell stacks are tested. Good fuel cell performance is obtained and the voltage distribution among every single cell in the stacks is very uniform. 相似文献

High-efficiency thermal management subsystem has a key role on the PEM fuel cell performance and durability. In this study, design of thermal management subsystem for a 5 kW PEM fuel cell system is investigated. A numerical model is presented to study the cooling flow field performance. The number of parallel channels in parallel serpentine flow field is selected as the design parameter of the flow field and its optimum value is obtained by compromising between the minimum pressure drop of coolant across the flow field and maximum temperature uniformity within the bipolar plate criteria. The optimum coolant flow rate is also determined by compromising between different criteria. Test results of a 5-cells short stack are presented to verify the numerical simulation results. 相似文献

Conventional bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells use extra rubber gaskets to seal the stack, which require an additional curing process at high temperature and increase the manufacturing and assembling time. To reduce the assembling time of fuel cell stacks and achieve gas sealability without using extra gaskets or curing cycles, innovative gasketless carbon composite bipolar plates were developed. To ease the assembling of the cell stacks, special grooves on the edge of the composite bipolar plate are provided for mechanical joining and the behavior of the bipolar plates under the stack compaction pressure conditions was investigated by FE analysis. The mechanical properties of the grooves were measured by the compressive strength test and compared with the FE analysis results. The sealability of the gasketless bipolar plate with grooves was tested to verify the integrity of the design. 相似文献

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells convert the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxygen directly into electrical energy. Waste heat and water are the reaction by‐products, making PEM fuel cells a promising zero‐emission power source for transportation and stationary co‐generation applications. In this study, a mathematical model of a PEM fuel cell stack is formulated. The distributions of the pressure and mass flow rate for the fuel and oxidant streams in the stack are determined with a hydraulic network analysis. Using these distributions as operating conditions, the performance of each cell in the stack is determined with a mathematical, single cell model that has been developed previously. The stack model has been applied to PEM fuel cell stacks with two common stack configurations: the U and Z stack design. The former is designed such that the reactant streams enter and exit the stack on the same end, while the latter has reactant streams entering and exiting on opposite ends. The stack analysed consists of 50 individual active cells with fully humidified H2 or reformate as fuel and humidified O2 or air as the oxidant. It is found that the average voltage of the cells in the stack is lower than the voltage of the cell operating individually, and this difference in the cell performance is significantly larger for reformate/air reactants when compared to the H2/O2 reactants. It is observed that the performance degradation for cells operating within a stack results from the unequal distribution of reactant mass flow among the cells in the stack. It is shown that strategies for performance improvement rely on obtaining a uniform reactant distribution within the stack, and include increasing stack manifold size, decreasing the number of gas flow channels per bipolar plate, and judicially varying the resistance to mass flow in the gas flow channels from cell to cell.

End plate is one of the main components of the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. The major role of the end plate is providing uniform pressure distribution between various components of the fuel cell (bipolar plates, etc.) and consequently reducing contact resistance between them. In this study a procedure for design of end plate has been developed. At first a suitable material was selected using various criteria. Then a finite element (FE) analysis was accomplished to analyze end plate deflections and get its optimized thickness. After fabricating the end plates, a single cell was assembled and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were carried out to ensure their good operation. A 5 kW fuel cell assembled with these end plates was tested at different operating conditions. The test results show an appropriate assembly pressure distribution inside the stack which indicates good performance of the designed end plates. 相似文献

An improved fabrication technique for conventional hot-pressed membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) with carbon supported cobalt triethylenetetramine (CoTETA/C) as the cathode catalyst is investigated. The V-I results of PEM single cell tests show that addition of glycol to the cathode catalyst ink leads to significantly higher electrochemical performance and power density than the single cell prepared by the traditional method. SEM analysis shows that the MEAs prepared by the conventional hot-pressed method have cracks between the cathode catalyst layer and Nafion membrane, and the contact problem between cathode catalyst layer and Nafion membrane is greatly suppressed by addition of glycol to the cathode catalyst ink. Current density-voltage curve and impedance studies illuminate that the MEAs prepared by adding glycol to the cathode catalyst ink have a higher electrochemical surface area, lower cell ohmic resistance, and lower charge transfer resistance. The effects of CoTETA/C loading, Nafion content, and Pt loading are also studied. By optimizing the preparation parameters of the MEA, the as-fabricated cell with a Pt loading of 0.15 mg cm−2 delivers a maximum power density of 181.1 mW cm−2, and a power density of 126.2 mW cm−2 at a voltage of 0.4 V. 相似文献

Experiments were conducted on two different cathode air cooled high temperature PEM (HTPEM) fuel cell stacks; a 30 cell 400 W prototype stack using two bipolar plates per cell, and a 65 cell 1 kW commercial stack using one bipolar plate per cell. The work seeks to examine the use of different heating strategies and find a strategy suited for fast start-up of the HTPEM fuel cell stacks. Fast start-up of these high temperature systems enables use in a wide range of applications, such as automotive and auxiliary power units, where immediate system response is needed. The development of a dynamic model to simulate the temperature development of a fuel cell stack during heating can be used for assistance in system and control design. The heating strategies analyzed and tested reduced the start-up time of one of the fuel cell stacks from 1 h to about 6 min. 相似文献

In this work, the performance of a High Temperature (HT) Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell (PEFC) stack for co-generation application was investigated. A 3 kW power unit composed of two 1.5 kW modules was designed, manufactured and tested. The module was composed of 40 composite graphite cell with an active area of 150 cm2. Composite Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEAs) based on Nafion/Zirconia membranes were used to explore the behavior of the stack at high temperature (120 °C). Tests were performed in both pure Hydrogen and H2/CO2/CO mixture at different humidification grade, simulating the exit gas from a methane fuel processor. The fuel cells stack has generated a maximum power of 2400 W at 105 A with pure hydrogen and fully hydrated gases and 1700 W at 90 A by operating at low humidity grade (95/49 RH% for H2/Air). In case the stack was fed with reformate simulated stream fully saturated, a maximum power of 2290 W at 105 A was reached: only a power loss of 5% was recorded by using reformate stream instead of pure hydrogen. The humidification grade of Nafion membrane was indicated as the main factor affecting the proton conductivity of Nafion while the addition of the inert compound like YSZ, did not affectthe electrochemical properties of the membrane but, rather has enhanced mechanical resistance at high temperature. 相似文献

Examined were the effects of the clamping pressure on the performance of a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. The electro-physical properties of the gas diffusion layer (GDL) such as porosity, gas permeability, electrical resistance and thickness were measured using a special-designed test rig under various clamping pressure levels. Correlations for the gas permeability of the GDL were developed in terms of the clamping pressure. In addition, the contact resistance between the GDL and the bipolar (graphite) plate was measured under various clamping pressures. Results showed that at the low clamping pressure levels (e.g. <5 bar) increasing the clamping pressure reduces the interfacial resistance between the bipolar plate and the GDL that enhances the electrochemical performance of a PEM fuel cell. In contrast, at the high clamping pressure levels (e.g. >10 bar), increasing the clamping pressure not only reduces the above Ohmic resistance but also narrows down the diffusion path for mass transfer from gas channels to the catalyst layers. Comprising the above two effects did not promote the power density too much but reduce the mass-transfer limitation for high current density. 相似文献
