Abstract
Due to growing energy and environmental issues, clean energy technology has gained recognition around the world. Because of its great energy transfer efficiency, outstanding power density, low operational temperatures, and environmental protection, PEMFC has been employed extensively in a variety of fields. But the thermal management of PEMFC has been a great challenge limiting its commercialization. Ineffective heat management strategies can shorten the fuel cell battery's lifespan in addition to affecting its performance. Therefore, this study provides an overview of how fuel cell bipolar plate structure and thermal management techniques have improved fuel cell performance. The results show that the tree-shaped fractal fuel cell bipolar plate, novel tapered dual serpentine channel and so on can enhance the heat dissipation effect of the bipolar plate and the temperature uniformity of the MEA, and form a uniform temperature distribution and pressure. Process strategies such as the new thermal management system with a thermal peak regulator can efficiently regulate the peak temperature and the average temperature of the fuel cell system to improve its starting performance. Most importantly, this research can help to alleviate the energy tension and reduce the environmental pressure.
