Journal ArticleDOI
Batteries and fuel cells for emerging electric vehicle markets
Zachary P. Cano,Dustin Banham,Siyu Ye,Andreas Hintennach,Jun Lu,Michael Fowler,Zhongwei Chen +6 more
TL;DR: This Review evaluates the potential of a series of promising batteries and hydrogen fuel cells in their deployment in automotive electrification and identifies six energy storage and conversion technologies that possess varying combinations of these improved characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrically Rechargeable Zinc–Air Batteries: Progress, Challenges, and Perspectives
TL;DR: The reaction mechanism of electrically rechargeable zinc-air batteries is discussed, different battery configurations are compared, and an in depth discussion is offered of the major issues that affect individual cellular components, along with respective strategies to alleviate these issues to enhance battery performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
In-plane and through-plane gas permeability of carbon fiber electrode backing layers
TL;DR: In this paper, the absolute gas permeability of several common gas diffusion layer (GDL) materials for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells was measured in three perpendicular directions to investigate anisotropic properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance comparison of Fick’s, dusty-gas and Stefan–Maxwell models to predict the concentration overpotential of a SOFC anode
R. Suwanwarangkul,Eric Croiset,Michael Fowler,Peter L. Douglas,Evgueniy Entchev,Mark A. Douglas +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed models for mass transport inside a porous SOFC anode based on Fick's model (FM), the dusty-gas model (DGM) and the Stefan-Maxwell model (SMM) to predict the concentration overpotential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capillary pressure and hydrophilic porosity in gas diffusion layers for polymer electrolyte fuel cells
TL;DR: Capillary pressure versus saturation curves for drainage of a wetting phase were measured for several gas diffusion layers that are commonly used in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells in this paper, and the results were described by several standard capillary models, the parameters of which can be further used to predict the relative permeability of the phases.
