Numerical Computation Of Multi-Component Two-Phase Flow in Cathode Of PEM Fuel Cells
A two-dimensional, unsteady, isothermal and two-phase flow of reactant-product mixture in the air-side electrode of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is studied numerically in the present study. The mixture is composed of oxygen, nitrogen, liquid water and water vapor. The governing equations are two species conservation, a single momentum equation for mobile mixture, liquid mass cons...
متن کاملFuel Processors for PEM Fuel Cells
Objectives • Demonstrate high performance desulfurizer, catalyst, micro-reactor and microcombustor/ microvaporizer concepts that will enable production of compact fuel processors for proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells • Design, fabricate and evaluate a 1-kWe fuel-flexible fuel processor during the first 36 months (one of the fuels capable of being reformed will be EPA Phase II reformulat...
متن کاملFlow Structures and Frictional Characteristics on Two-phase Flow in Microchannels in Pem Fuel Cells
This experimental paper presents a study of gas-liquid two phase flow in rectangular channels of 500μm x 45μm and 23.7mm long with different wall conditions of hydrophilic and hydrophobic surface, in order to investigate the flow structures and the corresponding friction factors of simulated microchannels of PEMFC. The main flow in the channel is air and liquid water is injected at a single or ...
متن کاملEffects of Flow Field and Diffusion Layer Properties on Water Accumulation in a Pem Fuel Cell
Water is the main product of the electrochemical reaction in a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. Where the water is produced over the active area of the cell, and how it accumulates within the flow fields and gas diffusion layers, strongly affects the performance of the device and influences operational considerations such as freeze and durability. In this work, the neutron radiography ...
متن کاملVisual Observation of Flow Regime Transition in Downward Vertical Gas-Liquid Flow Using Simple Mixer
Different flow patterns of downward gas-liquid two-phaseflow using simple mixer are studied in an experimental manner. An experimental setup is designed and fabricated to allow the visual observation of downward two-phase flow patterns and their transitions. The flow patterns are recorded by a 1200 frames per second high speed video camera. The quality of downward two-phase flow patterns photos...
