제목 Effects of shut-down operation on the performance at the freeze/thaw cycles for the cold start-up of PEFC
초록 Water management is one of vital points in PEFC (Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell) operation to achieve high performance as well as its durability. In this work, the various shut-down processes were systematically considered for the successful cold start-up. The influences of shut-down operation were investigated with single cells to understand the start-up ability as well as its durability. Performance and durability of the single cells which have various water removal conditions were evaluated with several times of freeze/thaw cycles. Thermal cycle effects on the characteristics of single cells were investigated with various start-up/shut-down conditions such as degree of freezing temperature, freezing rate and the maintaining time at the sub-freeze temperature. After finishing the freeze/thaw cycles, SEM, EPMA, N2 adsorption/desorption were checked for the alternation of physical properties. The result shows that the amount of remaining water after shut-down process affects on the performance as well as durability.
