## Abstract This paper discusses the effect of compression pressure on the mechanical and thermal properties of gas diffusion layers (GDL). The stressβstrain curve of the GDL revealed one nonlinear and two piecewise linear regions within the compression pressure range of 0β5.5βMPa. The thermal cond

Water flow through carbon cloth and carbon paper gas diffusion media used for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells treated with Teflon was measured. The gas diffusion layer (GDL) media are hydrophobic and it is necessary to apply pressure to force water to penetrate into the pores of these materi
Accurate information on the temperature field and associated heat transfer rates are particularly important in devising appropriate heat and water management strategies in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. An important parameter in fuel cell performance analysis is the effective thermal con
## Abstract In this work, an experimental study of gas dilution on the performance of a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell was carried out. Impedance spectra were analysed depending on the dilution of either hydrogen or oxygen by nitrogen. By comparison of the impedance spectra obtained,
