Modeling and Diagnostics of Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells / Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry (PDF)

Topics in Number 49 include:

. In-depth review of the durability issues in PEFCs
. Understanding and mitigation of degradation in the polymer membrane and electrocatalyst
. Summary of experimental diagnostics and modeling studies of cold start
. Methods for distributed diagnostics of species, temperature and current in PEFCs
. The operational principles of neutron radiography for in-situ visualization of liquid water distribution
. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique for visualization of water in PEFCs and tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) for measurement of water vapor concentration
. Liquid water transport in porous DM due to capillarity
. Meso-scale modeling of two-phase transport
. The atomistic simulations of electrochemical reactions on ectrocatalysts and the transport of protons through the polymer electrolyte

From reviews of previous volumes:

"This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science... [and]... deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers."
-Chemistry and Industry

"Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspects series."
-Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry

"Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry. . . . The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series."
-Bulletin of Electrochemistry

"Extremely well-referenced and very readable.... Maintains the overall high standards of the series."
-Journal of the American Chemical Society
