Abstract

As the PEMFC is a complex multi-physics device whose reliability and durability depend on the thermal-mechanical-electrical and chemical parameters. In this paper, theoretical and numerical studies is proposed to optimize the fuel cell performance using multiphysics model and design of experiments. 3D finite element analysis including a fully coupling of thermal-electrical-mechanical model is proposed to predict the electrical resistance of fuel cell. As the mechanical parameters (bending radius of the bipolar plate, thickness of the GDL and clamping pressure) remain uncertain, the design of experiments procedure is used to optimize the fuel cell behavior under several conditions.
