This study looks into how to make proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells work more efficiently in environments that change over time using new Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) methods. We ...

Traditionally, gravity has been assumed to have a negligible impact on the multiphase transport behaviour in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells; however, in this study, we reveal how the ...

Mechanisms of the bulk and local oxygen transport in cathode catalyst layers (CCLs) in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are presented. State-of-the-art strategies to mitigate the oxygen ...

PEM fuel cells will see uptake in a range of mobility and stationary applications, with specific technology trends for the individual fuel cell components. This article introduces these constituent ...
