About this document
Anatomy of Fuel Cell Components by Winnie Raghu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The key components of a fuel cell are bipolar plates, gas diffusion layers, and a catalyst coated membrane. Bipolar plates act as current collectors and distribute gases evenly. Gas diffusion layers provide support, distribute gases, remove water, and conduct electrons. The catalyst coated membrane, made of Nafion coated with platinum catalyst, allows hydrogen ions to pass through while separating gases. Moisture is critical for ion conduction, as it combines with hydrogen ions to form H3O+ ions that conduc
