Synthesized Bimetallic Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells
In the present study, a step by step process was applied to synthesize bimetallic electrocatalyst (Ru and Pt on VulcanXC-72R). This process can reduce the amount of platinum and increase the gas diffusion electrode (GDE) performance in the cathodic reaction of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Using the impregnation by hydrothermal synthesis method, a series of electrocatalysts ...
متن کاملStudy of flow and heat transfer characteristics in a periodic zigzag channel for cooling of polymer electrolyte fuel cells
In this study, a periodic zigzag channel with rectangular cross-section has been used in order to obtain a high-efficiency system for cooling a polymer electrolyte fuel cell. An appropriate function of fuel cells and enhancement of their lifetime require uniform temperature conditions of around 80°C. On the other hand, due to volume and weight constraints, a low-density compact heat exchanger i...
متن کاملDevelopment of low-cost, high-efficiency PEM Fuel Cells
It is generally accepted that the global demand for energy will dramatically rise in the future. Fuel cells are promising as efficient, non-polluting power sources that produces little noise and have no moving parts. The main problem is the high cost of manufacturing the devices, which has largely limited them to a handful of exotic applications. The objective of the present project is the deve...
