2 Basic overall reaction for hydrogen powering 2H 2 + O 2 2H 2 O Hydrogen produces electrons, protons, heat and water
3 PEMFC Anode reaction: H 2 2H + + 2e Cathode reaction: (½)O 2 + 2H + + 2e H 2 O Overall: 2H 2 + O 2 2H 2 O
4 SOFC Anode reaction: H 2 + O 2 H 2 O + 2e Cathode reaction: (½)O 2 + 2e O 2 Overall: 2H 2 + O 2 2H 2 O
5 Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) Inputs and Outputs Hydrogen Energy Oxygen Energy Electric Energy, V I t Heat Water
6 Enthalpy of formation Enthalpy of formation of the product in a chemical reaction is the difference in enthalpy of the product and sum of enthalpy of all reactants
7 Enthalpy of formation Reference state is 25 C and 0.1 MPa. At this state the enthalpy of the reactants is zero. The enthalpy of the product at the reference state is then given by the net heat transfer and this is termed the enthalpy of formation of the product
8 Enthalpy of formation = H p = Q CV The enthalpy of formation can be determined by experiments but commonly statistical thermodynamics is used to determine it for various compounds. Table is provided.
9 Enthalpy of formation Enthalpy of formation of the components and compounds at any other state than the reference base state is estimated by adding the change in enthalpy between the given state and the reference state as ht p h C MPa h 0 (, ) f (25,0.1 ) 25 C,0.1 MPa T, p h 25C, 0.1MPa T,P c p (T)dT

15 Estimation of open circuit voltage, OCV Let e be the charge of one electron. As two electrons are produced by the considered reaction, the produced charge becomes: 2Ne = 2F Coulombs where N is the Avogadro number and F is the Faraday constant. The electrical work done by the fuel cell in moving two electrons around the circuit is found from: Electrical work = charge x voltage = 2FE Joule

27 Fuel Cell Reaction involving Hydrogen Oxygen
28 EMF values Depends on temperature Low temperature (40 C): EMF 1.2 V High temperature (800 C): EMF 1 V
29 EMF versus temperature
30 Operational losses
31 FC Ireversibilities, Voltage losses Activation loss Ohmic loss Concentration loss Cross over and short circuit losses
32 Fuel Cell Polarization Curve Losses: anode and cathode activation losses, ohmic losses, mass transfer losses, losses due to short circuit, losses due to reactant crossover The net fuel cell overpotential becomes:
33 Operational Voltage vs Current Density for an FC
34 Voltage losses Activation losses over potential Fuel crossover/internal current losses Ohmic losses Mass transport/concentration losses
35 Activation losses The activation losses are non linear with current. Typically the activation losses introduce a sharp initial drop in the cell open circuit EMF with increasing current load. The losses are different at each electrode (the anode and cathode) because the double layer configuration is different. These losses are directly related to the energy barrier (resistances) for oxidation and reduction at the electrodes.
36 Activation losses The activation losses for the anode and cathode are given by the equations below: For a hydrogen oxygen FC, the cathodic activation loss is dominating and hence the anodic one is neglected.
37 Activation loss For equal charge coefficients, i.e., α a = α c = α It can be found based on Butler Volmer equation η act =
38 Exchange current density and charge transfer coefficient. A large value of means low electrode losses. n, F and R cannot be changed for a given reaction. Increase in T and increase of the reactant concentration C can lead to higher values of.
39 Minimizing activation losses High operational temperature, i 0 goes up Catalytic presence a) Rough catalysts mean more contact area, b) increase operational pressure, c) selection of catalytic material, Ni, Pt used commonly otherwise Pd better.
40 Ohmic losses These occur due to resistance to the flow of electrons in the interconnect, anode and cathode Directly proportional to the current Major loss in both low and high temperature fuel cells
41 Ohmic losses
42 Mass transport/concentration losses For low and high temperature fuel cells Particularly at high current densities Loss of high concentration of either fuel (at anode) or oxygen (at cathode) Fuel or oxygen is used faster than supplied
43 Mass transport loss The balance between the rate of transport of species and the rate of consumption at the interface determines the maximum current.the key transport processes are convection, diffusion and migration. Migration means transport of ionic species toward or away from the electrode due to the effect of an electric field. A high electric field gives high migration rate. Diffusion means transport of reactant or product species because of a concentration gradient. Convection means transport of reactant or product species by bulk fluid motion driven by natural or applied mechanical forces.
44 Mass transport loss
45 Concentration losses For reaction kinetics and based on the Butler Volmer equation it can be derived η conc,k =
46 Concentration losses Concentration effects can found by using the Nernst equation η conc,n =
47 Concentration losses η conc = η conc,k + η conc,n = (1 + 1/α)
48 Reactant crossover and internal currents The electrolyte of a fuel cell mainly conducts ions but it is not completely insulated from electrons. It will be able to support a small amount of electron conduction. This electron conduction in the electrolyte or internal current creates a net loss of current to external load. Also some reactants will diffuse from one electrode to another through the electrolyte where reactions occur without external electron transfer.
49 Fuel cross over/internal current loss Losses throughout the electrolyte a) Fuel is leaking through the electrode b) Electrons are leaking through the electrode Fuel leakage most severe but has a significant effect only at low temperature
50 j L j L is the maximum current density or limiting current density. At this all reactant gas has been consumed and the output cell voltage is zero.
51 PEMFC Cell voltage, volt No loss voltage of 1.2 volts Even the open circuit voltage is less than the theoretical no loss value Rapid initial fall in voltage Region where voltage falls slowly and graph is fairly linear Rapid fall at higher currents Current density, ma cm -2
52 SOFC Cell voltage, volt No loss voltage of 1.0 volts Very small initial fall on voltage, OCV almost equals to the theoretical value Graph mostly linear Rapid fall at higher currents, as with low temp. cells Current density, ma cm -2
53 Butler Volmer equation A key issue in the physical understanding, modeling and simulation of fuel cells is to determine the current generated by a cell. The most common method is to apply the so called Butler Volmer equation which relates the current density to the activation overpotential at each electrode/electrolyte interface. It reads:
54 Butler Volmer equation
55 Typical parameters for PEMFC and SOFC Parameters PEMFC SOFC Open circuit voltage (V) x A (V) B(V)
56 Oxygen Hydrogen Water Flow Rates
57 Direct oxygen consumption The total charge current I is given by where is the number of electrons per mole of oxygen, F the Faraday constant and is the number of mol/s of oxygen.
58 Direct oxygen consumption For a stack of N c number of cells the oxygen consumption is given by In terms of mass flow rate (kg/s) we have
59 Direct oxygen consumption The power consumption in a single cell and in a stack can be expressed as P c = I V c P t = N c P c = N c I V c Then the mass flow rates can be expressed as:
60 Direct oxygen consumption For stack: For cell:
61 Oxygen consumption as air Let the mol fraction of oxygen in air be The the number of moles of oxygen per kilogram air is: The consumption of air for a cathodic reaction is then
62 Oxygen consumption as air Commonly an excess amount of oxygen is supplied and the excess air supply is defined in terms of a stochiometric factor ξ air Then the supply air mass flow rate (stack) is given by
63 Oxygen consumption as air The exit air flow rate is then simply
64 Hydrogen consumption and supply rates Similarly it is possible to estimate the hydrogen mole consumption in an anodic reaction as (cell): For a stack:
65 Hydrogen consumption and supply rates Mass flow rates of hydrogen: Stack cell
66 Water production rate Consider a hydrogen oxygen FC and then 1 mol of water is produced for every two electron charges. The water production rate is given by:
67 Water production rate Mass flow rate
68 Heat Generation Rate
