The objective of this paper is Modeling and simulation of electrolyzer model type proton exchange membrane (PEM) that it is connected with solar cells, for to define and identify the factors that influence the production of hydrogen and oxygen. To generate these types of gas, we have used water and a source of electricity generated by solar cells. To perform the simulations results by using MATLAB software. We have used different physical equations defining these types of problems (Nernst-Planck, Nernst - Einstein and Fick's law). The different results shown in this work, that these types of PEM are best suited for desert areas (Adrar) with high temperatures and solar flux. This study shows the influence of temperature on the various parameters (alpha, i(0), D and Q), and it also shows an electrolyzer equipped with a membrane produces a relatively large amount of hydrogen, volume up to 2.25 L compared with an electrolyzer cell without membrane, volume of 0.0001 L.
