Effect of PEM fuel cell porous media compression on in-plane transport phenomena

Liquid-gas two-phase flow in the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of proton exchange membrane fuel cells is investigated using an ex-situ experimental setup. The mass transport phenomena is investigated in carbon paper and carbon cloth GDLs and at different compressions. Water percolation within the plane...
