Abstract

A fuel cell was made to allow direct observation of the phenomena in the cell, 2-D temperature measurement in cathode channels, and local current density measurements in anode side. The experimental results showed good correlation among direct view in the cell, temperature distribution and local current density. The experiment indicates transition phenomena of dry out and flooding depending on the flow and current conditions. The results suggests the possibility of different current density distribution for the same experimental conditions depending on the previous MEA condition history.
