摘要
This paper presents three dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) studies of large and small scale Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC). Emphasis is placed on obtaining a fundamental understanding of the interacting transport phenomena of mass, momentum and electrical charge. Simulations on large and small PEMFC are shown and validated against experimental data. With the large scale PEMFC case the impact of the Flow Field (FF) design on the pressure loss of a non-operating fuel cell is shown and the small scale PEMFC case is used to investigate the influence of the inlet humidity on the fuel cell performance.
