Hydrogen is known to be an ideal fuel that provides zero-emission energy. Fuel cells have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for fuel-efficient and emission-free vehicle power generation. PEMFC stacks require liquid cooling which can be operated in an open-cathode mode with air supplied by one or several fans, thus reducing the overall complexity of the PEMFC system. In this study, an open cathode PEMFC is used as the dependable power source and experiments are carried out to investigate the temperature characteristic of open cathode PEMFC. Combined with the using of oxidant and cell stack cooling, the optimal air fan supply voltage is 9.0V, and the maximal power can be obtained is 355W. |
