Abstract

Fuel cells convert chemical energy of hydrogen directly into electrical energy providing a clean and highly efficient source of electricity. In this paper we present a partial differential algebraic equation model that describes the gas flow, temperature and electrical potential depending on the reaction kinetics in a molten carbonate fuel cell.

Furthermore we will present results for the numerical simulation of this time dependent two dimensional model. (© 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
