  • Improvement of PEFC Performance by Membrane Hydration with Liquid Water Supply

抄録

In this article, we examined an effect of liquid water supply to a polymer electrolyte fuel cell membrane on membrane hydration and cell performance, because the membrane is to be swelled by means of direct contact with liquid water and thus improvement of cell performance can be expected. We assembled a fuel cell with liquid water feed for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurement and measured water content distribution in the membrane under fuel cell operation with liquid water supply. It was revealed that supplying liquid water to the membrane improved cell performance. MRI result clearly shows that liquid water supply enhanced membrane hydration, resulting in reduction of electric resistance of the membrane.
