Numerical Simulation of Electrochemical Processes in Polymeric Membrane Fuel Cells

Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) are identified as the most important choice to replace internal combustion engines. But there is still a long way to reach this fact, and, in order to reach such a purpose, it isnecessary to carry out many optimizations on these cells. One of the methods resulting in a deeper and betterunderstanding of physical processes within the cells is simulation of physical governing equations on fuel cells. In this article, these governing equations are introduced and a system of equations is solved for a model.
