Thermal conductivity and temperature profiles of the micro porous layers used for the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell
(Elsevier, 2013)
The thermal conductivity and the thickness change with pressure of several different
micro porous layers (MPL) used for the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC)
were measured. The MPL were made with different ...
Characterization and activity test of commercial Ni/Al2O3, Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 and prepared NieCu/Al2O3 catalysts for hydrogen production from methane and methanol fuels
(Elsevier, 2013)
In this study, methane and methanol steam reforming reactions over commercial Ni/Al2O3, commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 and prepared NieCu/Al2O3 catalysts were investigated. Methane and methanol steam reforming reactions catalysts ...
Scaling factors for channel width variations in treelike flow field patterns for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells - An experimental study
(Elsevier, 2021)
To have a uniform distribution of reactants is an advantage to a fuel cell. We report results
for such a distributor with tree-like flow field plates (FFP). Numerical simulations have
shown that the width scaling parameters ...
Pt decorated amorphous RuIr alloys as high efficiency electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation
(The Electrochemical Society, 2012)
This study focuses primarily on improving the utilization and
activity of anodic catalysts for methanol electro-oxidation. The
Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) anodic catalyst, a carbon
supported Pt decorated amorphous ...
Fuel cell-battery hybrid powered light electric vehicle (golf cart): Influence of fuel cell on the driving performance
(Elsevier, 2013)
A light electric vehicle (golf cart, 5 kW nominal motor power) was integrated with a commercial 1.2 kW PEM fuel cell system, and fuelled by compressed hydrogen (two composite cylinders, 6.8 L/300 bar each). Comparative ...
Supported 3-D Pt nanostructures: the straightforward synthesis and enhanced electrochemical performance for methanol oxidation in an acidic medium
(Springer, 2013)
Noble metal nanostructures with branched morphologies [i.e., 3-D Pt nanoflowers (NFs)] by tridimensionally integrating onto conductive carbon materials are proved to be an efficient and durable electrocatalysts for methanol ...
Magnesium–carbon hydrogen storage hybrid materials produced by reactive ball milling in hydrogen
(Elsevier, 2013)
Time-resolved studies uncovered kinetics and mechanism of Mg–hydrogen interactions during High energy reactive ball milling in hydrogen (HRBM) in presence of various types of carbon, including graphite (G), activated carbon ...
Optimization of gas diffusion electrode for polybenzimidazole-based high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell: Evaluation of polymer binders in catalyst layer
(Elsevier, 2013)
Gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) prepared with various polymer binders in their catalyst layers (CLs) were investigated to optimize the performance of phosphoric acid doped polybenzimidazole (PBI)-based high temperature ...
A new route to control texture of materials: Nanostructured ZnFe2O4 photoelectrodes
(2013)
Studies were conducted to investigate the influence of deposition solution composition (methanol ≤ the deposition solvent ≤ ethanol) on their physical and chemical properties that matters in the aerosol formation and ...
Validation of an externally oil-cooled 1 kWel HT-PEMFC stack operating at various experimental conditions
(Elsevier, 2013)
The performance of 1 kWel 48-cell HT-PEMFC at various experimental conditions is presented, particularly at several CO concentrations (up to 1.0%). Polarization curves measured at various anode (1.0-2.5) and cathode (1.6-4.0) ...
