Development and Characterization of Direct Formic Acid Fuel Cell for Potable Power Applications
Furthermore, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is used to determine the spatial distributions of water and fuel in the membrane and GDL's of operating DFAFC. MRI images taken with a 14.7 T imaging system, show that the fuel distribution with the operating fuel cell is non-uniform. Generally, there …
