Effects of operating conditions on the performance uniformity of the proton-exchange membrane fuel cell stack

Xinning Zhu et al.

Summary: The performance uniformity of the PEMFC stack is greatly influenced by operating conditions such as stoichiometric ratio, back pressure, dew point temperature, and heating temperature. The content of liquid-saturated water and the uniformity of oxygen distribution at the CL/GDL interface of the fuel cell play a key role in determining the performance uniformity. Decreasing water content and increasing oxygen distribution uniformity can improve output performance stability, while increasing oxygen content can enhance the stack's output performance. The best performance uniformity is achieved at a stoichiometric ratio of 2.0, back pressure of 3.0 bar, dew point temperature of 343 K, and heating temperature of 348 K.

Collective enhancement in hydrophobicity and electrical conductivity of gas diffusion layer and the electrochemical performance of PEMFCs

X. L. Wang et al.

Summary: In this work, a facile strategy for collectively optimizing the hydrophobicity and electrical conductivity (EC) of GDL was proposed through hydrothermal deposition and high-temperature sintering process (HDS-GDL). The results showed that the HDS-GDL had enhanced surface water contact angle and improved in-plane and through-plane ECs compared to the original GDL. Furthermore, the HDS-GDL with collectively enhanced hydrophobicity and ECs further improved the electrochemical performance of PEMFCs.
