On Heat and Mass Transfer Phenomena in PEMFC and SOFC and Modeling Approaches
(2005) In Transport Phenomena in Fuel Cells- Abstract
- There are similarities among various transport processes in solid oxide fuel cells
(SOFCs) and proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), but also some
differences. The present work concerns modelling and numerical analysis of
heat, mass transfer / species flow, two-phase transport and effects on the cell
performance in SOFCs and PEMFCs. Numerical calculation methods are further
developed to enable predictions of convective heat transfer and pressure drop in
flow ducts of the fuel and the oxidant. The unique boundary conditions (thermal,
mass) for the flow ducts in fuel cells are identified and implemented. The
composite duct consists of a porous layer, gas flow... (More) - There are similarities among various transport processes in solid oxide fuel cells

composite duct consists of a porous layer, gas flow duct and/or solid current
inter-connector (or -collector). The results from this study are applicable for
other investigations considering overall fuel cell modeling and system studies, as
well as the emerging field of micro-reactor engineering. (Less)
