Evaluating the effective diffusion coefficient of reactant gas in the catalyst layer of PEMFC using the fractal method considering the pore size distribution

Abstract The pore size distribution of the catalyst layer (CL) significantly influences the effective diffusion coefficient (EDC) of the reactant gas due to the Knudsen diffusion effect in the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). In this study, a novel fractal method is proposed to evaluate t...
