In this episode of The Zero Emission Zone, we explore the fascinating world of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) and their thermal management. Discover how researchers are fine-tuning coolant flow fields, temperatures, and channel layouts to enhance both electrical and thermal performance. We'll break down the science behind heat generation, voltage loss, and the importance of balancing coolant flow to prevent performance drops. Join us as we dive into the innovative strategies that could push fuel cell efficiency to new heights and power the future of clean energy.
