The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 1.1 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 1.3 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.0002 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.33 SJR: 0.256 SNIP: 0.49 CiteScore™:: 2.4 H-Index: 23

Краткое описание

A full three-dimensional and single phase Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with the both gas distribution flow channels and the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA), has been developed. A single set of conservation equations which are valid for the flow channels, gas diffusion electrodes, catalyst layers and the membrane region are developed and numerically solved using a finite volume based technique. In this research, some parameters such as oxygen consumption, water production, temperature distribution at various cell voltages were studied. On the other hand, the operating pressure which its effect is studied in this paper, is one of the most important parameters that affect the cell performance and transport phenomena. In addition, the effect of Gas Diffusion Layers (GDLs) geometrical configuration on cell performance showed that the observed model, with prominent GDLs, enhances the cell performance compared with the conventional model. The deflected MEA effect on cell performance has been investigated and the δ = 0.4 is chosen as the better model than the others. Finally, the numerical results are compared with the available experimental data which revealed good agreement.
