✦ Synopsis


DSKelectrodes are--as in the case of other gas-diffusion electrodes-penetrated by two distinct pore systems, one of which at a given gas pressure is completely filled with gas, whilst the other is filled with electrolyte. In both of these pore systems the respective phases (gas, liquid) are able to move indepeendently under the influence of a hydrostatic pressure gradient .

Assuming an isotropic porous body in the macroscopic part and using a pre-determined poredistribution function, hydrodynamic relationships for the movement of the electrolyte and the gas phase, respectively, have been derived with the use of certain simplifications . From this the pressure and concentration distribution, respectively, for a -diffusion electrode under load have been calculated for both phases . Experimental methods for determining the characteristic specific flow resistances are discussed .

Rfsumf-Des electrodes 6 skeleton double sont-comme d'habitude chez tons les electrodes k diffusion de gaz-trees de deux systdmes de pores diff6rentes . Sous condition de pression normale lea deux sya sont compl6tement remplis I'm de gaz, l'autre de liquids . Les deux phases, gaz et electrolyte, peuvent circuler sous l'influence de la pression hydrostatique independamment, chacune dans son propre syst6me de pores .

Si l'on assume que, en le regardant macroscopiquement, le corps poreux de l'6lectrode soit isotropique, en introduisant des distributions de pores predeterminees et en utilisant des approximations appropri6es, it est possible de calculer des ex ressions hydrodynamiques pour Ia circulation de l'6lectrolyte et du gaz . Les relations ant permis de calculer les distributions de la concentration et de la pression en cas d'une electrode A cat d6bitee . En outre, des ni6thodes experimentelles pour la mesure de la resistance du flux caract6nstique seront discut6es .

Zusammenfassmlg-Wie alle Gasdiffusionselektroden, sind such Doppelskelett-Katalysator-Elektroden von zwei unterschiedlichen Porensystemen durchzogen, von denen bei normalem Druck das eine restlos mit Gas, das andere restlos mit Elektrolyt geftillt ist . Die beiden Phasen k6nnen sich, jede in ihrem eigenen Porensystem, unabhangig bewween and dem Druckgradienten folgen .

Wenn man annimmt, daB die porSse Elektrode makroskopisch isotrop ist, and wenn man vorher festgelegte Porenverteilungen einflihrt, lassen sich hydrodynamische Bezlehungen fair die Bewegung von Gas and Elektrolyt naherungsweise ableiten. Daraus kann man Druck-and Konzentrationsverteilung in belasteten Gasdiffusionselektroden berechnen . AuBerdem warden experimentelle Methoden zur Messung der charakteristischen DurchfluBwiderstande behandelt .
