The electrochemical machining of carbon steel was carried in various electrolytes which contain NACl and $NaCIO_3$. Though electrolyte containg NaCl yields fast machining rate, dimensional control is rather difficult. In the case of electrolyte with $NaCIO_3$, dimensional control of anode shape can be obtained through modification of cathode design. Mathematical modeling is also performed for these systems and agreements are good compared with experimental date. The constant gap experiment butween two electrode yielded faster machining rate than constant cathode moving rate experiment.

PEMFC has high potential for future development due to its high energy density, eco-friendliness, and high energy efficiency. When it becomes small, light and flexible, it can be competitive as an energy source for portable devices or flexible electronic devices. However, the use of hard and heavy materials for structural rigidity and uniform contact pressure transmission has become an obstacle to reducing the weight and flexibility of PEMFCs. This review intends to provide an example of the application of a new structure and material for lightweight and flexibility. As a lightweight PEMFC, a tubular design is presented and structural advantages through numerical modeling are explained. Manufacturing methods to realize the structural advantages and possibilities of tubular PEMFCs are discussed. In addition, the materials and manufacturing processes used to fabricate lightweight and flexible PEMFCs are described and factors affecting performance are analyzed. Strategies and structural improvements of light and flexible movements are discussed according to the component parts.

This paper proposes a modeling of fuel cell which replaces dc source during simulation. Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that convert chemical energy in fuels into electrical energy. This system has high efficiency and heat, no environmental chemical pollutions and noise. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) are commonly used as a residential generator. These fuel cells have different electrical characteristics such as a low voltage and high current compared with solar cells. And there are different behaviors in the V-I curve in the temperature and pressure. Therefore, the modeling of fuel cell should consider wide voltage range and slow current response and the resulting electrical model is applied to boost converter with fuel cell as an input source.

A model for DMFC anode performance is developed. The model takes into account potential--independent methanol adsorption on the catalyst surface, finite rate of proton transport through the anode catalyst layer (ACL), and a potential loss due to methanol transport in the anode backing layer. An approximate analytical half--cell polarization curve is derived and equations for the anode limiting current density are obtained. The polarization curve is fitted to the curves measured by Nordlund and Lindbergh and parameters resulted from the fitting are discussed.

Fuel cells are one of the renewable energy sources that have sparked a lot of scientific attention for solving problems related to the energy crisis and environmental pollution. One of the most crucial subjects concerning the utilization of fuel cells is modeling. Therefore, an analytical steady-state and dynamic fuel cell model was described in this study. The parameter for the identification process was investigated, and the MATLAB/Simulink implementation was demonstrated. A 15-W proton exchange membrane fuel cell was used to apply the suggested modeling methodology. Comparing experimental and simulation findings indicated that the model error was constrained to 3%. This study showed that temperature and humidity affect fuel cell performance.

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) are using widely as a useful technique mainly in the field of electrochemical for the analysis of electrode reactions or characteristics of the composites. The response analysis of the systems technique provides comprehensive informations about the characteristic and structure of complex and internal reaction. The EIS is the method to measure impedance of the measurement target classified by the frequency, it select the equivalent impedance model to give same response from the result and it calculate the parameter. Therefore, the chemical reaction inside the fuel cell is to modeling to electrical impedance. And as repeating the same experiment in each of the operating point, we can get each different parameter. As a result, we can establish the equivalent impedance model in each operating point. Therefore, if we use these models, we can evaluate the fuel cell without the internal design parameter of the fuel cell as required in existing modeling. The EIS is used typically technique for distinguish status of fuel cell called SOH(State Of Health). When the fuel cell is degradation, Efficiency and health of the fuel cell is reduced because internal impedance is increase. As usage of these principles, we can evaluate state of fuel cell through the impedance analysis of fuel cells. In this study, we are presents EIS distinction system and algorithm for residential fuel cell systems. At the time of the fuel cell installation in the fields, the EIS system and proposed algorithm will be able to apply as technique for efficiency and performance evaluation about fuel cell system.

일반적으로 연료전지 제어의 주목표는 연료와 공기의 반응이 원활하게 이루어져 출력을 연속적이고 안정되게 얻어지도록 공정설비를 제어함에 있다 연료전지의 과부하에 따른 성능저하 및 급격한 유량증가에 따른 양극간의 압력차로 인한 전극손상이 발생하지 않도록 하기 위해, 연료전지의 제어조건을 고려한 동적모델링이 필요하다. 전극간 압력차이를 허용범위 이하로 유지하며 급격한 부하요구가 발생하더라도 부하에 적합한 이용율 이상으로 부하가 걸리지 않도록 공기이용률 제어를 이용하였다. 10kW고분자 연료전지(PEMFC)의 전산모사를 통해 모델의 타당성을 검토하였고 제어성능을 수행하여 1초 내의 부하추종성능을 얻을 수 있었으며, 0.01atm내의 양극간 압력차를 유지시킬 수 있었다.

최근 전 세계가 환경문제와 에너지 자원 고갈 문제에 대해 관심을 집중하고 있다. 이런 문제들을 해결하기 위한 여러 가지 방법들 중 하나가 하이브리드자동차(HEVs)이다. 그래서 하이브리드자동차 기술에 대한 사람들의 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하이브리드 자동차의 에너지 저장 시스템의 후보들은 AGM 배터리, Ni-MH 배터리 및 리튬배터리 등이다. AGM 배터리는 상대적으로 낮은 가격, 높은 충전 효율, 낮은 자가 방전 및 높은 안전성 등이 장점이다. 상용자동차에 하이브리드 자동차 시스템을 적용하기 위해서는 4개의 AGM 배터리를 2개의 직렬과 2개의 병렬로 연결해야한다. 본 연구에서는 상용차용으로 사용될 직 병렬로 연결되어 있는 AGM 배터리 시스템의 충 방전 특성을 예측하기 위하여 AGM 배터리의 충 방전 모델링을 수행하였다. AGM 배터리의 충 방전 모델링을 위해 내부에서 일어나는 전기화학 반응, 전하 보전과 물질 보존 법칙을 통해 배터리의 지배방정식으로 세웠다. 모델링 결과의 정확성을 검증하기 위해 다양한 조건에서의 실험결과와 비교하였다.

In proton exchange membrane fuel cell, the heat is generated at the catalyst layer as result of exothermic electrochemical reaction. This heat increases temperature of gas diffusion layer and membrane whose conductivity is very sensitive to humidity, function of temperature. So it is very important to analysis heat transfer through fuel cell to maintain temperature at specified range. In this paper numerical simulation was done including reversible, irreversible, ionic resistance, water formation loss to source term of energy equation. Results show that irreversible and water formation loss contributes mainly to energy source term and as current density increases, all of energy source terms become increased and Nusselt number is increased as results of more heat generation. Particularly irreversible loss is found to be predominant among the all energy source and water formation at cathode channel influences the temperature distribution of fuel cell greatly.
