A steady state and isothermal half-cell model is considered in the present study. It is assume that the oxygen concentration in the gas channel changes in the channel direction. While in the gas diffuser layer, the oxygen concentration varies across the membrane in the membrane direction. We successfully obtain an analytical solution that describe the phenomenon relate to oxygen transport and membrane phase potential. This solution can be used to analyze fuel cell performance with variable operating parameter. It shows that increasing the porosity of gas diffuser layer allows more oxygen to diffuse across the catalyst layer and improves the cell performance. A thin gas diffuser layer thickness is better than a thick one, because too thick gas diffuser layer makes the transport route longer and resulting in less oxygen could participate in the catalyst and then reduce the cell performance. Considering catalyst layer thickness, catalyst layers that are either too thin or too thick do not give satisfactory results, because a thin layer would lead to lower reaction rate, while a thick layer would form higher Ohm resistance. Therefore, there exists an optimum thickness of catalyst layer. Considering the membrane thickness, it is found that a thick layer would increase cell resistance and eventually reduce the cell performance. Finally, base on the results at different locations it is discovered that oxygen distribution in the gas channel always influences the cell performance. Hence, the discussions and analysis of gas channel design for fuel cells are necessary. Since the cell present study does not consider water effect, all result presented in this work were based on the situation without water.目錄 中文摘要…………………………………………………………………I 英文摘要………………………………………………………………..III 表目錄…………………………………………………………………...V 圖目錄…………………………………………………………………...V 符號說明……………………………………………………………...VIII 第一章 序論……………………………………………………………..1 1.1 燃料電池的發展………………………………………………….1 1.2 燃料電池的本原理……………………………………………….2 1.3 燃料電池種類…………………………………………………….3 1.4 文獻回顧………………………………………………………….5 1.5 研究主題…...……………………………………………………10 第二章 理論分析………………………...…………………………….12 2.1 基本假設………………………………………………………...12 2.2 統御方程式……………………………………………………...13 2.2.1 氧氣傳輸現象…………………………………….………...13 2.2.2 薄膜相電位....…………………………………….………...15 2.2.3 電流密度………………………………………….………...17 2.2.4 電池電壓………………………………………….………...18 第三章 結果與討論……………………………………………………20 3.1 基本操作條件(base case)下之結果分析…………...………...20 3.1.1 濃度分布之結果….………………………………………...20 3.1.2 薄膜相電位分布之結果….………………………………...21 3.1.3 電流密度分布之結果….…………………………………...22 3.1.4 I-V、I-P性能曲線之分布…………………………………...23 3.2 氣體擴散層之分析……………………………………………...23 3.2.1氣體擴散層孔隙度對濃度影響之分析……………………..23 3.2.2氣體擴散層孔隙度對薄膜相電位影響之分析...…………...24 3.2.3氣體擴散層孔隙度對電池性能影響之分析……………......25 3.2.4氣體擴散層厚度對濃度影響之分析………………………..26 3.2.5氣體擴散層厚度對薄膜相電位影響之分析………………..26 3.2.6氣體擴散層厚度對電池性能影響之分析…………………..27 3.3陰極觸媒層之分析………………………………..……………...27 3.3.1陰極觸媒層厚度對濃度影響之分析………………………..27 3.3.2陰極觸媒層厚度對電池性能影響之分析…………………..28 3.4質子交換膜之分析……………………………..………………...29 3.5水平x方向之局部特性分析……………………………………..29 3.5.1不同x位置下的濃度分析………………….………………..29 3.5.2在x=0時的特性分析…………….……………………………..30 第四章 結論與建議……………………………………………………56 4.1 總結……………………………………………………………...56 4.2未來研究方向與建議……………….…………………………...57 參考文獻………………………………………………………………..58 Appendix....…………………………………………………………….61en-US質子交換膜燃料電池觸媒孔隙度PEM fuel cellcatalystprosity質子交換膜燃料電池中陰極半電池之準二維解析解A Quasi-Two Dimensional Analytic Solution for the Cathode Side Half-Cell Model of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cellthesis
