Numerical study for a micro-PEMFC

A three dimensional numerical model for a micro proton exchange membrane fuel cell was developed to simulate the concentration distribution of the fuel gas, and analyze the flow field and current field in the fuel cell. Finite control volume scheme with SIMPLEC algorithm was employed in the numerical method.
Various operating conditions on the performance of the fuel cell were studied. It was shown that the concentration of oxygen at the cathode can strongly influence the cell performance. Increase the operating temperature and the pressure of the inlet gas can improve the performance of the fuel cell.
