Reversible Co(II)-Co(III) Transformation in a Family of Metal-Dipyrazolate Frameworks.

Transformation between oxidation states is widespread in transition metal coordination chemistry and biochemistry, typically occurring in solution. However, air-induced oxidation in porous crystalline solids with retention of crystallinity is rare due to the dearth of materials with high structural stability that are inherently redox active. Herein, we report a new family of such materials, four isostructural cobalt-pyrazolate frameworks of face-centered cubic, fcu, topology, fcu-L-Co, that are sustained by Co8 molecular building blocks (MBBs) and dipyrazolate ligands, L. fcu-L-Co were observed to spontaneously transform from Co(II)8 to Co(III)8 MBBs in air with retention of crystallinity, marking the first such instance in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). This transformation can also be achieved through water vapor sorption cycling, heating, or chemical oxidation. The reverse reactions were conducted by exposure of fcu-L-Co(III) to aqueous hydrazine. fcu-L-Co(II) exhibited high gravimetric water vapor uptakes of 0.55-0.68 g g-1 at 30% relative humidity (RH), while in fcu-L-Co(III) the inflection point shifted to lower RH and framework stability improved. Insight into the transformation between fcu-L-Co(II) and fcu-L-Co(III) was gained from single crystal X-ray diffraction and in situ spectroscopy. Overall, the crystal engineering approach we adopted has afforded a new family of MOFs that exhibit cobalt redox chemistry in a confined space coupled with high porosity.

Acoustics of wet porous media with evaporation/condensation

This paper investigates acoustic wave propagation in wet rigid-frame porous media accounting for evaporation and condensation. At equilibrium, the solid walls are covered by a thin water film, and water vapor in the air is at its temperature-dependent saturation pressure. Small acoustic perturbations cause water to vaporize or condense, which together with the reversibility of the phase change, lead to a linear problem where the usual local poro-acoustics physics is enriched with the (i) Clapeyron relation linking liquid-wall temperature, vapor pressure, and latent heat of vaporization, (ii) latent heat transfer in the solid frame, (iii) diffusion equation for water vapor in air, and (iv) water vapor's equation of state. The equilibrium temperature highly influences the vapor concentration and the physical parameters of saturated moist air. Using the two-scale asymptotic homogenization method, it is shown that the dynamic permeability is determined similarly to classical porous media, while the effective compressibility is modified by evaporation/condensation and the equilibrium temperature. This modification is influenced by vapor mass and heat flows associated with phase changes through a local fully coupled heat transfer and water vapor diffusion problem, with specific boundary conditions at the gas–water interface. The analysis identifies dimensionless parameters and characteristic frequencies defining the upscaled model's features. Depending on equilibrium temperature, the theory qualitatively and quantitatively determines the characteristics of acoustic waves propagating through the media. The results are illustrated and discussed with analytically developed models.

A mass-coupled hybrid absorption-compression heat pump with output temperature of 200 °C

Heat pump technology is a promising solution for energy saving and emission reduction in industry. However, current technologies with limited temperature lift are not sufficient to meet the industrial heat demands. Aiming at efficient heat supply over 200 °C, this work proposes a hybrid absorption-compression heat pump cycle with mass coupling between LiBr-water type II absorption heat pump and water vapor compression heat pump, which could reduce the working pressure of compressor. Water injection is applied in the compressor for performance improvement. Detailed performance analysis is carried out for the hybrid heat pump cycle, showing an optimized COP of 3.01 under the temperature lift from 150 °C to 200 °C. Besides, the proposed system is capable of achieving temperature lift of 50 °C for heat source between 100 °C and 164 °C. Greater application superiority occurs at higher temperature output. The proposed cycle broadens the working domain of heat pump.

Triple oxygen isotope reveals insolation-forced tropical moisture cycles.

Tropical oceans are the main global water vapor and latent heat sources, but their responses to radiative forcing remain unclear. Here, we investigate oceanic moisture dynamics of the western tropical Pacific (WTP) over the past 210,000 years through an approach of planktonic foraminiferal triple oxygen isotope (Δ'17O). The Δ'17O record is dominated by the precession cycles (~23,000 years), with lower values reflecting higher humidity in concert with higher Northern Hemisphere summer insolation. Our empirical and modeling results, combined with other geological archives, suggest that the enhanced moisture convergence over the WTP largely intensifies changes in the meridional and zonal hydrological cycles, affecting rainfall patterns in East Asia and northern South America. We propose that the insolation-driven WTP moisture dynamics play a pivotal role in regulating tropical hydroclimate.

Mechanism for compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the Barents–Kara Sea during the boreal autumn and their relationship with sea ice variability

The frequency of heatwaves in the Arctic is on the rise under global warming. These occurrences not only profoundly impact the local ecological environment but also exert remote effects on East Asia and even the global climate. Yet, there exists a noticeable dearth of research focus on Arctic compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves, limiting our comprehension of Arctic climate dynamics. We investigated the occurrence and extinction mechanism for compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the Barents–Kara Sea (BKS) during the boreal autumn and explored their association with the sea ice variability. Our results show that a significant dipole pattern appears in the geopotential height two days before the occurrence of compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the BKS during autumn, characterized by a negative anomaly centered over Greenland and a positive anomaly centered over the BKS. A robust southerly anomaly in the middle of this dipole pattern facilitates the continuous inflow of warm, moist air from the Atlantic Ocean to the BKS. Both the strong intrusion of moisture and the transport of heat (positive temperature advection) driven by the large-scale atmospheric circulation increase downward latent heat flux, sensible heat flux and net longwave radiation. These factors collectively increase the near-surface temperature over the BKS, ultimately leading to the occurrence of compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in this region of the Arctic. The extinction of compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the BKS is a result of the weakening of the transport of heat and intrusion of water vapor caused by changes in the large-scale circulation. The intrusion of water vapor and the transport of heat significantly reduce the sea ice concentration in most of the BKS. This reduction in sea ice persists for an additional day after the termination of compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the BKS. A process of positive atmospheric temperature feedback on a sub-monthly scale may potentially influence the maintenance of compound daytime-nighttime heatwaves in the BKS during the boreal autumn.

Enhancement in Heat Transfer Performance of Water Vapor Condensation on Graphene-Coated Copper Surfaces: A Molecular Dynamics Study.

The condensation of water vapor plays a crucial role in various applications, including combating water scarcity. In this study, by employing molecular dynamics simulations, we delved into the impact of graphene coatings on water vapor condensation on copper surfaces. Unique to this work was the exploration of various levels of graphene coverage and distribution, a facet largely unexplored in prior investigations. The findings demonstrated a notable increase in the rate of water vapor condensation and heat transfer performance as the graphene coverage was reduced. Using graphene coverages of 84%, 68%, and 52%, the numbers of condensed water molecules were 664, 735, and 880 molecules/ns, respectively. One of the most important findings was that when using the same graphene coverage of 68%, the rate of water vapor condensation and heat transfer performance increased as the graphene coating became more distributed. The overall performance of the water condensation correlated well with the energy and vibrational interaction between the graphene and the copper. This phenomenon suggests how a hybrid surface can enhance the nucleation and growth of a droplet, which might be beneficial for tailoring graphene-coated copper surfaces for applications demanding efficient water vapor condensation.

Ablation behavior at full-temperature ranges of C/SiC in combustion gases containing water vapor

In order to clarify the ablation behavior of C/SiC ceramics in the combustion gases containing water vapor, we proposed a novel ablation model of C/SiC at full-temperature ranges and simulated the ablation behavior of C/SiC ceramics under combustion gases environments by using our program developed in MATLAB. The numerical results indicate that the comparison between the calculation and the experimental data is in good agreement. The surface temperature of C/SiC ceramics is positively correlated with heat flux, enthalpy and pressure, while negatively correlated with the mass fraction of H2O in the combustion gases. Furthermore, the surface recession of C/SiC increases with the increase of heat flux or water vapor content but decreases with the increase of pressure. This study can predict the ablation behavior of C/SiC ceramics in combustion gases environments, and then guide for optimization of C/SiC components in scramjet engines.

Mesoscale and Large-Eddy Simulation of the Boundary Layer Process of Cumulus Development over Naqu, Tibetan Plateau Part A: Comparison Between Simulation and Observation

Cumulus clouds are of great interest in numerical weather prediction. However, the scarcity of observed data on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) has not allowed a correct interpretation of their development. The Third TP Atmospheric Science Experiment provided experimental data to address this challenge. The objective of this study was to ascertain the effective utilization of observation-nudging techniques for the implementation of combined weather research and forecasting large-eddy simulation (WRF-LES) for further experimental designs. This study simulated cumulus clouds over southern TP on July 19, 2014, using the WRF-LES model and final reanalysis data from the Global Forecast System. We applied observation nudging and one-way nesting strategies to influence the optimality of WRF-LES runs. The study performed simulations with six different scenarios in comparison with observational data. The findings demonstrated that, despite being locally initiated and growing upscale, cumulus clouds were nonetheless subject to large-scale forcing. Simulations with observation nudging produced more accurate and trustworthy results than simulations without nudging when compared to observations. While the observed time series were misleading, LES with mesoscale forcing produced a microphysical evolution that was consistent with the observations and an accurate water vapor profile. Without mesoscale forcing, LES provided the best ABL water vapor and sensible heat flux; however, it failed to provide a good microphysics field. In this aspect, large-scale forcing played an important role in cumulus development during the model experiment. The study recommended focusing on the model's response to the boundary conditions to improve the application of one-way nesting in separate iterations and observational nudging techniques

Heat and mass transfer analysis of desiccant-coated heat exchanger with desiccants and metal-organic framework for bus air conditioning applications

Desiccant-coated heat exchangers (DCHEs) in air conditioning offer advantages like independent temperature and humidity control, reduced energy consumption, and high performance. However, the availability of desiccants with high water adsorption and low thermal energy requirements is limited. The present study proposes that aluminum fumarate (Al-Fum) MOF-coated heat exchangers will outperform conventional desiccants, especially at low regeneration temperatures (around 50°C). In order to evaluate this hypothesis, the performance of DCHEs was evaluated with a validated analytical model for different solid desiccant coatings: silica gel, zeolite, and Al-Fum MOF. Water vapor sorption characteristics, heat and mass transfer, and adsorption and desorption capacities were determined. The results showed that the Al-Fum MOF-coated heat exchanger outperformed silica gel and zeolite at low regeneration temperatures under adiabatic conditions. The MOF exhibited superior water uptake capacity (0.39 g/g) between 20% and 80% RH compared to the other studied conventional desiccants. Moreover, the MOF achieved the lowest outlet air temperature. At 19.5 g/kgda, the MOF demonstrated higher adsorption rates (4 % and 0.3 %) than zeolite and silica gel. These findings highlight the potential of Al-Fum MOFs as energy-efficient solutions for controlling indoor air humidity, particularly for latent-sensible heat separation systems with conventional vapor compression bus air-conditioning systems.

Membrane role in heat and mass transfer resistance distribution and performance of hollow fiber membrane contactor for SGMD desalination

Hollow fiber membrane contactor (HFMC) is the core device of heat mass exchange between seawater solution and sweeping air in sweeping gas membrane distillation (SGMD) desalination. In order to reveal the distribution of heat and mass transfer resistance on feed solution side, porous membrane side and sweeping air side, a mathematical model considering the simultaneous heat mass transfer and water vapor diffusion mechanism in the membrane pores was established for the cross-flow HFMC. The simulation results of the model were compared with experimental results and literature results. Comparison shows that the deviation of simulation results of the model is less than 13.4 %, which verifies the accuracy and reliability of the simulation results. Influences of the main structural characteristics of porous membrane on the resistance distribution of heat and mass transfer, efficiency and membrane flux were explored. Air side dominates the heat transfer process, while the membrane side accounts for less than 39 % of the total heat transfer resistance for the main range of membrane microstructure parameters investigated. The mass transfer is controlled by the porous membrane except for thin membrane with a thickness of less than 100 μm. Membranes with porosity above 0.8 and as thin as possible can achieve better mass transfer efficiency and freshwater flux. Increasing mean pore diameter has a strong promotion effect on the increase of membrane flux before it reaches 150 nm, and beyond this critical value, the water vapor diffusion mechanism changes from Knudsen collision to molecular collision. Effects of different operating parameters and membrane microstructure parameters on air temperature distribution and humidity distribution were also analyzed.

Heat and Mass Transfer of Water During Activated Carbon Adsorption

AbstractIn order to investigate the dynamic process of the heat and mass transfer phenomenon of water vapor on activated carbon, a fixed‐column adsorption unit and two kinds of activated carbon were used as adsorbent for water vapor adsorption under the adsorption temperature 293.15 K, 303.15 K and 313.15 K, respectively. A coupled model was developed by mass and energy balance, mass transfer and simplified DO adsorption equilibrium equation. The effects of physical parameters on heat and mass transfer were theoretically investigated. Results show that the numerical model match well with the experimental data (R2>0.993). The axial diffusion coefficient (DL) increases from 1.226×10−6 m2 s−1 to 4.062×10−6 m2 s−1 for RAC and 1.425×10−6 m2 s−1 to 4.030×10−6 m2 s−1 for MAC, mass transfer coefficient (k) increases from 8.171 s−1 to 27.083 s−1 for RAC and 9.499 s−1 to 26.864 s−1 for MAC. Concurrently, the breakthrough time of adsorption water vapor gradually shorten from 1000 s to 780 s with temperature increasing from 293.15 K to 313.15 K. The effect of axial diffusion coefficient (DL) on mass transfer is not obvious. Furthermore, the influence of the mass transfer coefficient (k) on temperature variation rate surpasses that of the internal heat transfer coefficient (h).

Development of Chitosan-Based Films Incorporated with Chestnut Flower Essential Oil That Possess Good Anti-Ultraviolet Radiation and Antibacterial Effects for Banana Storage

New and valuable packaging materials, with high biocompatibility and biodegradability, have garnered attention in recent years. The aim of this study was to investigate the physicochemical characterization and biological activities of chitosan (CH)-based composite films with the incorporation of chestnut flower essential oil (CFEO). The composite films were prepared by the casting method and characterized in terms of structural, morphological, and mechanical properties via FT-IR, XRD, UV, SEM, AFM, and TGA. Antibacterial properties were investigated using Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Calletotrichum musae. Antioxidant capabilities were measured by DPPH assay. The results proved the significantly increased water vapor permeability (WVP), heat resistance, and antibacterial and antioxidant capabilities of CH-CFEO films. The incorporation of CH and CFEO enhanced UV blocking, which made the film shield almost all UV light. Films with a tensile strength of 6.37 ± 0.41 MPa and an elongation at break of 22.57 ± 0.35% were obtained with 6 mg mL−1 of CFEO. Subsequently, banana preservation experiments also confirmed that the composite films could effectively extend shelf life through reducing weight loss. These desirable performances enable our newly developed composite films to be a remarkable packaging material to become alternatives to traditional petroleum-based food-packaging materials and solve the fresh fruit preservation dilemma.

Three-dimensional simulation of heat and moisture transfer in woven fabric structures

Fabric structure parameters have a significant impact on the comfort of heat and moisture transfer in garments. Previous numerical simulations required extensive mathematical calculations and mostly investigated one- or two-dimensional models of fiber assembly without considering the weave structure, which is a key parameter, that significantly influences the porosity of the woven structure and consequently its heat and moisture management. While the finite element method supports the simulation of the optimal shape and material properties with better visibility, previous finite element models focused on heat transfer and neglected water vapor transfer in fabrics. In this article, the finite element simulation of heat and moisture transfer in woven fabrics is established based on the testing principle of thermal resistance and moisture resistance tester using COMSOL Multiphysics software. In this simulation, three-dimensional parametric geometrical models of the fabric are created using curve interpolation methods by acquiring the control point coordinates of different weaves (plain, 2/2 balanced twill, and 4/1 unbalanced twill weaves). Heat and moisture transfer properties of fabric models in the horizontal and vertical directions were analyzed, including the heat flux, moisture resistance, water vapor permeability, and water vapor concentration. The article also deals with the effects of weave structure and fabric cover in a range of 72.1–85.1% on the fabric heat flux and water vapor concentration. Comparison between model and experimental results revealed that the three-dimensional simulation can accurately predict the impact of weave pattern and fabric cover on the fabric heat and moisture transfer performance. In addition, this model can be utilized to study the distribution of heat and water vapor within fabrics, providing a theoretical foundation for optimizing heat and moisture comfort in woven fabrics.

Study on the formation mechanism and preventive measure of pot cover effect for subgrade in seasonal frozen soil area under freeze–thaw cycles

AbstractThe presence of an impervious cover layer inhibits the free evaporation of moisture in the soil during seasonal freeze–thaw cycles, leading to a phenomenon known as the pot cover effect. This can result in severe frost heave issues in airport runways, highway subgrades, railway subgrades, and other similar infrastructure. In this study, a disease investigation was conducted at a gas transmission station situated in an area with seasonally frozen soil. Meanwhile, the causes of moisture accumulation and frost heave in the lower part of concrete pavement slabs were analyzed. A coupled water–vapor–heat model for unsaturated frozen soil is then established to analyze the formation mechanism of the pot cover effect in the subgrade. Finally, the preventive effect of the impervious layer on moisture migration in the pot cover effect was analyzed. The results indicate that the pot cover effect causes a significant accumulation of moisture beneath the concrete pavement at the gas transmission station, resulting in a moisture content increase of 5%–35%. During the freezing period, the vapor of shallow soil migrates upward, while the liquid water remains unchanged. During the melting period, both vapor and liquid water migrate downward. The laying of the impervious layer can prevent moisture migration of the pot cover effect. When the impervious layer is placed on the freezing front (0°C), the prevention effect of the pot cover effect is the best.

Ultralong sodium alginate-based room temperature phosphorescence materials with advantages of color tunability, flexibility and facile large-area fabrication

Organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) has promising applications in diverse fields, whereas a formidable challenge remains in the development of flexible organic RTP materials, especially environmentally friendly RTP materials. In this work, natural polymer sodium alginate (SA)-based RTP materials have been facilely developed by doping phenylboronic acid (PBA) and its derivatives into SA matrices. 4-carboxyphenylboric acid doped system SA-CPBA exhibits the best RTP performance with an ultralong phosphorescence lifetime of up to 231 ms. Interestingly, SA-CPBA shows excitation-dependent phosphorescence color tunability by water vapor fumigation and heating, and the afterglow color change has good reversibility upon alternating treatment of water vapor fumigation and heating. Amazingly, flexible and transparent RTP films are obtained through adding a certain amount of glycerol (G) into SA-CPBA matrices, and SA-CPBA-G also possesses excellent excitation-dependent phosphorescence color tunability. Furthermore, the flexible SA-CPBA-G film can be conveniently fabricated on a large area. These excellent features enable the prepared SA-based RTP materials to be successfully applied in the fields of flexible display and information encryption. This work provides a guideline for the preparation of environmentally friendly flexible polymer-based color-tunable RTP materials and expands the application range of SA-based materials to the field of flexible displays.

Application of Biomass Smoldering for Rural Building Heating in China: Strengths and Challenges.

Biomass smoldering for rural building heating could be a potential choice for bioenergy utilization in China to reduce the pollution caused by agroresidues open burning and to satisfy the increased demand of rural building heating. Its strengths include low pretreatment, transportation, and storage fees of fuel; ease of operation; good fertilizer characteristics of ash; use of latent heat of water vapor; pollution reduction; reduction of pests, weeds, and plant diseases on the farm; etc. However, controls of the burn rate and the gas emission are two challenges of the application, and related solutions of these challenges are discussed.

The Effect of Water Injection on a Naturally Aspirated Spark-Ignited Engine

Water injection (WI) is a well-known technique to mitigate knocking phenomena, reducing the in-cylinder gas temperature with a high heat of vaporization and specific heat of water. In this study, the effect of WI directly into the cylinder on fuel efficiency was investigated using a 2.0 L naturally aspirated (NA), four-cylinder, port fuel injection (PFI)-spark-ignited (SI) engine. Spray visualization of water injection by a commercial gasoline direct-injection (GDI) injector was performed to elucidate the water evaporation characteristics. In engine experiments, combustion characteristics were analyzed by adjusting the WI timing and amount. Synergistic effects with other gas dilution techniques, such as EGR and Lean burn, were also investigated. The spray image of WI showed poor evaporation of water compared to gasoline, even at high fuel temperatures. The optimal timing of WI was advanced up to the early intake stroke due to the harsh conditions of NA engines for water evaporation compared to turbocharged engines. With the combination of EGR, the optimal WI timing was advanced by the compression stroke, and further fuel efficiency improvement was achieved. In lean combustion, WI can improve both combustion stability and fuel efficiency.

Characterization of Water Vapor Sorption Performance and Heat Storage of MIL-101 (Cr) Complex MgCl2, LiCl/LaCl3 System for Adsorptive Thermal Conversion.

Adsorption heat conversion systems can provide heating and cooling across time and space in a more environmentally friendly way. Porous materials are potential candidates for water-based adsorption thermal conversion, in which a metal-organic framework (MOF) has a larger specific surface area and porosity than other porous matrices. However, many MOFs with high saturated adsorption capacity have great deficiencies in performance at low water vapor partial pressure, which hinder their application in adsorption thermal conversion. To improve the water vapor adsorption performance of MIL-101 (Cr), different contents of magnesium chloride, lithium chloride, and lanthanum chloride are mixed into MIL-101 (Cr) by an impregnation method. The properties and structures of the materials are characterized by XRD, SEM, nitrogen adsorption tests, water vapor adsorption tests, TG, FTIR, and so on. The results show that the saturated water vapor adsorption capacity of the sample impregnated with salt increases by 1.5-2.3 times, up to 2.24 g/g, compared with that of the unimpregnated sample. When the partial pressure of water vapor is 0.3, the adsorption capacity increases by 5.3-7.5 times and reaches 0.68 g/g at most. The maximum heat storage density of impregnated samples can be increased by 866 J/g. Impregnated MgCl2 can greatly improve the adsorption and thermal conversion performance of MOF, and impregnated MgCl2 and the proper amount of LiCl can further improve the performance of the material system. Our experiments show that the composite impregnation of magnesium chloride and the proper amount of lithium chloride can improve the application performance of the MOF materials in the adsorption thermal conversion process.

Projection on elevation-dependent and latitude-dependent warming over Antarctica from CMIP6 under different socioeconomic scenarios

Many studies have focused on elevation-dependent warming (EDW) across high mountains, but few studies have examined both EDW and LDW (latitude-dependent warming) on Antarctic warming. This study analyzed the Antarctic amplification (AnA) with respect to EDW and LDW under SSP1–2.6, SSP2–4.5, SSP3–7.0 and SSP5–8.5 from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) during the period 2015–2100. The results show that the AnA appears under all socioeconomic scenarios, and the greatest signal appears in austral autumn. In the future, Antarctic warming is not only elevation-dependent, but also latitude-dependent. Generally, positive EDW of mean temperature (Tmean), maximum temperature (Tmax) and minimum temperature (Tmin) appear in the range of 1.0–4.5 km, and the corresponding altitudinal amplification trends are 0.012/0.012/0.011 (SSP1–2.6)—0.064/0.065/0.053 (SSP5–8.5) °C decade−1•km−1. Antarctic EDW demonstrates seasonal differences, and is strong in summer and autumn and weak in winter under SSP3–7.0 and SSP5–8.5. For Tmean, Tmax and Tmin, the feature of LDW is varies in different latitude ranges, and also shows seasonal differences. The strongest LDW signal appears in autumn, and the warming rate increases with increasing latitude at 64–79°S under SSP1–2.6. The similar phenomenon can be observed at 68–87°S in the other cases. Moreover, the latitude component contributes more to the warming of Tmean and Tmax relative to the corresponding altitude component, which may relates to the much larger range of latitude (∼2600 km) than altitude (∼4.5 km) over Antarctica, while the EDW contributes more warming than LDW in the changes in Tmin in austral summer. Moreover, surface downwelling longwave radiation, water vapor and latent heat flux are the potential factors influencing Antarctic EDW, and the variation in surface downwelling longwave radiation can also be considered as an important influencing factor for Antarctic LDW. Our results provide preliminary insights into EDW and LDW in Antarctica.

Comprehensive analysis of shutdown purge influencing factors of proton exchange membrane fuel cell based on water heat transfer and water vapor phase change mechanism

A two-dimensional multiphase proton exchange membrane fuel cell model is established to study the effect mechanism of temperature, pressure, humidity, and flow rate on the purge rate and ionomer dissolved water content at the end of purging on the basis of water heat transfer and water vapor phase change mechanism. The numerical model is analyzed by COMSOL Multiphysics 6.0 software, and the polarization curve and high-frequency impedance curve obtained under the same operating conditions are used to verify the validity of the model. Results show that ionomer dissolved water content increases and then decreases slightly due to the liquid water dissolved phase transfer in the slow-change step of the purge. Temperature, pressure, and humidity can effectively improve the purge rate and reduce the ionomer dissolved water content of the purge end. However, flow rate has little impact on both, but it can shorten the duration of the first stage and improve the effectiveness of the purge by effectively removing liquid water. This study provides a basis for revealing the influence of shutdown purge and formulating a reasonable shutdown purge strategy.
