Abstract Depending on specific configuration and design, a variety of physical phenomena is present in fuel cells, e.g., multi-component gas flow, energy and
mass transfer of chemical species in composite domains and sites. These physical phenomena are strongly affected by chemical/electrochemical
reactions in nano-/micro-scale structured electrodes and electrolytes. Due to the electrochemical reactions, generation and consumption of chemical
species together with electric current production take place at the active surfaces for all kinds of fuel cells. Furthermore, water management and twophase flow in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and internal reforming reactions of hydrocarbon fuels More >
