Abstract The structure of the concave-convex plates has proven to be crucial in optimizing the internal flow characteristics of the electrolyzer for hydrogen production. This paper investigates the impact of the gradual expansion angle of the inlet channel on the internal flow field of alkaline electrolyzers. The flow distribution characteristics of concave-convex plates with different inlet angle structures in the electrolytic cell is discussed. Besides, the system with internal heat source is studied. The results indicate that a moderate gradual expansion angle is beneficial for enhancing fluid uniformity. However, an excessively large gradual expansion angle may More >
