Overview

Experimental evaluation demonstrates rapid cold start of proton exchange membrane fuel cells at -40 °C, indicating safe and efficient sub-zero thermal management.

Key Points

  • Rapid cold start from –40 °C to 35 °C succeeds within 6 minutes by integrating a catalytic heating unit directly into proton exchange membrane fuel cell bipolar plates.
  • Heat transfer efficiency increases up to 60% through direct contact with the membrane electrode assembly, operating at a safe hydrogen concentration of 1.8 vol.%.
  • Supports stable fuel cell operation by uniformly distributing heat across bipolar plates, preventing thermal degradation of the membrane electrode assembly.
