Polymer Electrolyte Membrane and Methanol Fuel Cell

초록

This chapter summarizes the recent advances in the PEMFC and DMFC technologies. It introduces two major polymer membrane-based fuel cells, proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) and direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC), followed by the working principles of these fuel cells and modeling and theory of PEMFCs. Section 1 conveys the historical introduction and classifications of fuel cells. Sections 2 and 3 present the basic principle and components in the PEMFC and DMFC, respectively. Sections 4 and 5 is about the systematic designs of the PEMFC and DMFC. Finally, Section 6 explains the fundamentals of electrochemistry and theoretical model of the PEMFC. © 2016 Scrivener Publishing LLC. All rights reserved.
