To engineer the desired properties of fibrous porous media, a parametric modeling approach is needed to support the rational design of the materials before the fabrication. In this study, we propose a methodology that enables the accurate representation of three-dimensional (3D) microstructures of fibrous porous media and prediction of their transport properties. Toray TGP-H-060 gas diffusion layer (GDL) is selected as an example to demonstrate the feasibility of the suggested design methodology. The detailed microstructure of the GDL with the inclusion of locally distributed binder is constructed using an extended periodic surface (PS) modeling technique. A 3D morphological approach is taken to create the binder distribution within the fibrous microstructure. Transport properties including permeability, relative diffusivity, and tortuosity and local structure characteristics of the generated microstructure, under different binder loading are calculated. It is shown that the detailed model of the fiber-binder composite has a strong influence on the predicted properties. Copyright (C) 2014, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
