| Sumario: | In this work, a three-dimensional mathematical model including the fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer, and charge transfer incorporating electrochemical reactions was developed and applied to investigate the transport phenomena and performance in high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells (HT-PEMFCs) with a membrane phosphoric acid doping level of 5, 7, 9, 11. The cell performance is evaluated and compared in terms of the polarization curve. The distributions of temperature, oxygen mass fraction, water mass fraction, proton conductivity, and local current density of four cases are given and compared in detail. Results show that the overall performance and local transport characteristics are significantly affected by the membrane phosphoric acid doping level. |
