Abstract
The Proton Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) performance would affect the effect various design and operating parameters. In this paper, scaling up the various active area such that 9 cm2 , 16 cm2 and 25 cm2 with the various landing to channel width ratio of (L: C) 1:1, 1:2 , 2:1 and 2:2 interdigitated multipass flow channel of PEMFC at pressure (1 bar) , temperature ( 313K) and constant mass flow rate of reactants was analyzed numerically. The model was developed and simulated using Creo 2.0 and the Fluent CFD 16.0 software respectively. The maximum power of 2.61, 4.93 and 8.52 watts were attained by scaling up study of 9 cm2 , 16 cm2 and 25 cm2 active area respectively.
Keywords- Creo; interdigitated flow channel; PEMFC,Scaling up; CFD; Power.
