Water management in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, ie, balance between
membrane drying and liquid water flooding, is a major aspect in the operation of these …

The proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a particularly promising energy
conversion device for use in stationary or vehicular applications. PEMFCs provide high …

New policies and strict emission limits in the transports sector result in a gradual switch
towards alternative fuels and hydrogen is getting attention: fuel cell systems are considered …

In this work, three pin-type flow field (FF) designs for a proton exchange membrane fuel cell
(PEMFC) cathode with the circle, diamond, and square pins are proposed. The gas-liquid …

In this study, a significant number of experimental tests to proton exchange membrane
(PEM) fuel cells were conducted to investigate the effect of gas flow fields on fuel cell …

The cross flow in the under‐land gas diffusion layer (GDL) between 2 adjacent channels
plays an important role on water transport in proton exchange membrane fuel cell. A 3 …

Water management remains one of the major challenges in optimising the performance of
PEMFCs, in which liquid accumulation and removal in gas diffusion layers (GDLs) and flow …

In this study, it was demonstrated that membrane electrode assembly (MEA) conditioning at
the low stress condition produces a higher performance compared to MEA conditioning …

The paper describes a flow field design which is based on the improvement of the local
cross-flow conditions in a split serpentine flow field. The layout of the flow field is such that …

For a gas diffusion layer (GDL) with hydrophobic treatment, its hydrophobicity (contact
angle) may change along the through-plane direction, and lead to different two-phase …
