Proton exchange membrane fuel cell operation and degradation in short-circuit.
Résumé
This paper presents an experimental study dealing with operation and degradation during an electrical short circuit of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell stack. The physical quantities in the fuel cell (electrical voltage and current, gas stoichiometry, pressures, temperatures and gas humidity) are studied before, during and after the failure. After a short circuit occurs, a high peak of current appears but decreases to stabilize in a much lower value. The voltage drops in all the cells and even some cells presents reversal potentials. The degradation is quantified by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
