    Performance uniformity analysis in polymer electrolyte fuel cell using long-term dynamic simulation

    The temporal stability and spatial homogeneity of current density are key factors in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell (PEFC) performance and durability. Temporal and spatial variations of relative humidity, fuel concentration, and water droplets in the channels are the principal causes of non-homogeneous current density. A dynamic pseudo-3D model was previously proposed by the authors and has been extended and improved to perform the long-term and intensive simulations of PEFC with low computational cost, which allows to study of the performances homogeneity with different experimental configurations and flow field topologies. The model considers important phenomena in the homogeneity analysis, such as gases and liquid water movement in diffusion layers and flow field, electrochemical reactions, and others. Model validation has been performed using experimental data obtained from a 25 cell with a single serpentine, which has allowed studying the model transient response and spatial representation. The simulations have been used to study the homogeneity and stability of 36 setups of PEFC, varying the rib/channel width ratio, the stoichiometric ratio, and the number of parallel serpentine channels. The results show the importance of a properly flow field design to control gas flow, remove the channels’ liquid water, and keep a homogeneous feeding. The study evaluated a set of channel configurations that show the improved temporal voltage stability and current density spatial homogeneity. The results show the impact of channel gas speed and ratio channel/rib width in liquid droplets removal and the proper fuel spatial distribution; and how configurations with a lesser number of channels in serpentine design require a lower stoichiometric ratio to perform better temporal and spatial uniformity. In the case of the cell configurations simulated, the optimum design was achieved using between 5 and 7 parallel serpentine channels and a channel/rib ratio 3/5.

    A numerical model for the simulation of complex planar Newtonian interfaces
    (Elsevier, 2025-01) Esteban Paz, Adolfo; Hernández Rodríguez, Julio; Tajuelo Rodríguez, Javier; Rubio González, Miguel Ángel
    We present a numerical model for the simulation of complex planar interfaces at which moving solid objects can be immersed, reproducing a wide variety of experimental conditions. The mathematical model consists of the Navier-Stokes equations governing the incompressible viscous flow in the liquid subphase, the transport equation for the evolution of the surfactant concentration at the interface, and the interfacial stress balance equation. The equations are simplified by treating the problem as isothermal and the surfactant as insoluble. The bulk flow equations are discretized using a collocated finite volume method, while the interfacial flow equations are discretized using a finite area method. The Boussinesq-Scriven interface constitutive model and a variant form accounting for extensional viscosity are used to describe the extra surface stress tensor. The coupling between surfactant concentration, interfacial velocity, and bulk velocity is treated implicitly by solving the interfacial and bulk equations sequentially at each time step until a stopping criterion is satisfied. The motion of the solid is treated by an arbitrary Lagrangian- Eulerian method. The model has been implemented in the OpenFOAM framework and allows the incorporation of new interface models and solvers, making the developed new package a versatile and powerful tool in the field of computational rheology. Applications of the model include the numerical simulation of flow around objects, such as probes, immersed at a complex interface, reproducing given experimental conditions, and its use as a tool in the analysis and design of interfacial stress rheometers. Several test cases have been performed to validate the model by comparing the results obtained with analytical solutions and with numerical and experimental results available in the literature.
