Dynamic thermal model for proton-exchange membrane fuel cell

In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to simulate the transient phenomena in a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system. Large transient changes are expected for practical application such as transportation vehicles due to acceleration and deceleration. Simple models are...

For control purposes, a fuel cell model must include the dynamics of flow and pressure in the anode and cathode channels and mass/heat transfer transients.
