Investigation of Water Transport Parameters and Processes in the Gas Diffusion Layer of PEM Fuel Cells

Constitutive relationships are developed to describe the water transport characteristics of the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Additionally, experimental fixtures and procedures for the determination of the constitutive relationships are presented. The wat...
