It is expected that due to the blockage effects in the presence of the baffles, more fuel gas in the flow channel can be forced into the gas diffuser layer to enhance the chemical reactions and then augment the performance of the PEMFC systems. The effects of liquid water formation on the reactant gas transport are taken into account in the present modeling. Predictions show that the local transport of the reactant gas, local current density generation, and the cell performance can be enhanced by the presence of the baffles. A physical interpretation for the difference in the baffle effects at high and low operating voltages is presented. The results reveal that, at low voltage conditions, the liquid water effect is especially significant and should be considered in the modeling. The cell performance can be enhanced at a higher air velocity on the cathode side, by which the cell performance can be enhanced and occurrence of the mass transport loss can be delayed with the limiting current density raised considerably. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
