Design and optimization of a novel composite bionic flow field structure using three-dimensional multiphase computational fluid dynamic method for proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Lei Xia et al.

Summary: An improved leaf vein bionic flow field (LVFF) is designed and optimized to enhance the performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with benefits including lower pressure drop, more uniform reaction gas distribution, and higher power output compared to conventional flow fields. The LVFF with 10 branch channels on one side of the main channel shows the largest power output increase by 5.894% compared to conventional designs. Moreover, the novel composite bionic flow field structure (CBFF) further improves the performance of PEMFC with an 8.475% increase in power output and more uniform distribution of reaction gas and current density.
