A Microscopic Continuum Model of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Electrode Catalyst Layer

A series of steady-state microscopic continuum models of the cathode catalyst layer (active layer) of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell are developed and presented. This model incorporates O₂ species and ion transport while taking a discrete look at the platinum particles within the active layer....
