Abstract
The water balance inside a fuel cell was analysed and several equations were introduced as functions of fuel cell gas-stream inlet and outlet pressures, inlet relative humidities (RHs), temperature, pressure drops across flow channels, and reactant partial pressures. The effect of RH on PEM fuel cell performance was studied at elevated temperatures under ambient backpressure using NafionĀ®-based MEAs. The results showed that fuel cell performance could be depressed significantly by decreasing RH from 100 to 25%. AC impedance and cyclic voltammetry techniques were employed to diagnose the RH effect on fuel cell reaction kinetics. Reducing RH can result in slower electrode kinetics, including electrode reaction and mass diffusion rates, and higher membrane resistance.
