...Tae Hyoung Noh; Van Lap Nguyen; Agnesia Permatasari; Magnus So; Gen Inoue An optimized cathode catalyst layer (CCL) design can improve fuel cell performance. In this study, we tried to optimize the structure by investigating the electrochemical properties of ion and mass transport through various...

... dimensional, single-channel, counterflow model was built to analyze the performance of the PEM fuel cell. Different surface contact angles were set to the liquid water droplets in the catalyst layers (CLs) and gas diffusion layers (GDLs) to present the different wetting property characterizations...

... blister test proton exchange membranes polymer electrolyte membrane PEM membrane electrode assembly MEA catalyst layer electrode cracks One of the major technological obstacles toward the commercialization of fuel cells is the operational lifetime. At least 5000 h of lifetime is needed...

...P. Berg; A. Novruzi; O. Volkov A mathematical model is developed to describe the reaction dynamics in the vicinity of the triple-phase boundary (TPB), which is an important part of the pore scale structure of the catalyst layer in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. The model incorporates coupled...
