Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

PEM fuel cell model is developed in the ANSYS code. The proposed model can be used for studying the physical parameters effect on PEMFC performance. The main purpose of this study is to use a model for simulating the temperature distribution, (I-V) curve, as well as the current density distribution in the PEM fuel cell. The results showed that the performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is improving with increasing temperature. These findings can be used to gain a better understanding of the functioning of the PEMFC system.
