| Abstract | This work presents Computational Fluid Dynamic model development with 100 cm2 active area of multi-serpentine flow channel for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). Single Cell PEMFC test station was established in order to validate numerical result. Most input parameters were obtained by experimental measurement and literature survey. However some parameters such as reference exchange current density was fitted to calibrate model result as well as surface volume ratio of catalyst layer had been adjusted. The result of numerical model shows good agreement with experiment in terms of polarization curve. Moreover several reaction transport results have been explored through the simulation. This research aim to develop fundamental understanding of transport phenomena in order to gain insight complex coupled process taking place in PEMFC as well as to aid further optimization in design process. |
