제목 Numerical Modeling of Performance and Degradation Rate for Membrane Electrode Assemblies in High Temperature PEM Fuel Cells
초록 The numerical model of degradation rate in high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC) using phosphoric acid (PA) doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) membrane are developed. The model accounts for degradation factors in terms of activation, ohmic, and concentration over-potentials and subsequent degradation of performance for high temperature membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs). In addition, the model considers operating temperature effects on degradation rate for MEAs in HT-PEMFC since the degradation rate for MEAs are highly different according to their operating temperature normally between 150℃ and 190℃. The developed model is validated with HT-PEMFC degradation data after long-term operations reported in the literature. Numerical simulations are carried out to investigate the effects of operating temperature on HT-PEMFC performance degradation. The numerical results indicate that the effect of operating temperature on HT-PEMFC durability is significant and thus expected lifetime and average performance for high temperature MEAs are changeable due to the determined operating temperature.
