摘要：
This paper first compares the conversion efficiency and power density of a direct-methanol fuel cell (DMFC) with the equivalent parameters of a state-of-the-art direct-hydrogen fuel cell (DHFC) - both for current DMFC data and for projected improvements in DMFC performance. The cell level comparison is then extended to the system level for potential automotive application, and limited comparisons are also made for a system based on methanol reformate fuel. It is concluded that a DMFC-powered vehicle which apparently can meet the requirements for a general-purpose zero-emission vehicle (ZEV), can become competitive with a DHFC-powered ZEV.
