Abstract:
The research on temperature and heat flux during mode switching process of unitized regenerative fuel cells is importance. Thus, in this paper, the local temperature and heat flux are measured during mode switching using self-made thin film sensors, and heat transfer coefficient is also obtained. The results of the experiment exhibit that the temperature and heat flux change significantly during mode switching, and periodically change with periodic mode switching, the heat generation is greater than the heat dissipation inside the cell. During mode switching, the temperature and heat flux are higher in upstream, and the temperature and local heat transfer coefficient increase along main gas flow direction. The fuel cell current density has a great influence on heat transfer when cell mode switches. At different current density, the temperature and heat flux show different changing trend when the cell switches from electrolytic cell mode to the fuel cell mode. These experimental results can provide guidance to make fuel cell run more efficiently in practical application.
