TL;DR: In this article, a knife slit test was adapted to measure fracture energies of PEMs, resulting in fracture energies that were two orders of magnitude smaller than those obtained with other fracture test methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of electrode sub-micron surface feature size on current generation of Shewanella oneidensis in microbial fuel cells
TL;DR: In this article, the role of feature size in the increase in surface area of a 3D micro/nanostructures on the MFC anode was investigated, and it was shown that optimally sized surface features have a substantial effect on current production that is independent of their effect on surface area.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Transient Model of Heat, Mass, and Charge Transfer as Well as Electrochemistry in the Cathode Catalyst Layer of a PEMFC
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimal Synthesis/Design of a Pem Fuel Cell Cogeneration System for Multi-Unit Residential Applications–Application of a Decomposition Strategy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a decomposition methodology to the synthesis/design optimization of a stationary cogeneration proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell system for residential applications.
Patent
Fuel Cell Devices, Systems, and Methods
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe devices, systems, and methods associated with making and/or using a fabric, which can comprise a hydrophobic coating, a microporous sub-layer, and a fuel cell.
