Fuel Cells - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book presents a comprehensive study of fuel cell technology, starting from fundamental principles and progressing to advanced mathematical modeling and numerical simulation. It explains how fuel cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy with high efficiency and low environmental impact.The book covers different fuel cell types, including PEMFC, SOFC, MCFC, AFC, and DMFC, highlighting their operating conditions, advantages, and limitations. It also develops the thermodynamic and electrochemical foundations necessary to understand performance, efficiency, and loss mechanisms.Transport phenomena are modeled using the governing equations of mass, momentum, and energy, showing the multiphysics nature of fuel cell systems. These equations are solved numerically using finite difference, finite volume, and finite element methods implemented in MATLAB for two-dimensional simulations.Overall, the book provides both theoretical and computational tools to analyze fuel cell behavior, making it useful for students, researchers, and engineers working in sustainable energy systems.
