摘要： A conformable fuel cell is provided which includes a basic structure that provides flexibility while providing a high compression along the active surface of the fuel cell's membrane electrode assembly, which can be achieved by an injection-molded frame. A suitable fuel is delivered to the anode aspect of the fuel cell. Effective water management could also be provided by appropriate diffusion layers. The fuel cell can be contour-molded to a desired shape, or can be constructed of an array of flexibly connected individual fuel cells that overall have a curvilinear shape, or can be constructed as a pliable fuel cell that can be incorporated into an application device or an article of clothing.

摘要： A fuel cell which provides improved performance during a cold start. Several embodiments are provided to enable the controlled introduction of fuel into the cathode of the fuel cell such that oxidation occurs, heat is released and the temperature of the fuel cell is raised. Such fuel may be introduced into the cathode directly or may be introduced into the anode and allowed to crossover an electrolytic membrane. Alternatively, the fuel may be directed through a special conduit which allows oxidation of some of the fuel as it flows through.

摘要： A direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) system is provided with a pump for pumping methanol into the cell. The pump is driven by carbon dioxide produced by the electrochemical reaction at the anode of the fuel cell. Because the amount of CO2 generated is proportional to the power generated by the cell, and thus the amount of fuel demanded by the cell, the pump is self-regulating. The system may be integrated using microelectromechanical system fabrication techniques.

摘要： A fluid flow plate includes a generally porous portion and a generally non-porous portion which together form on a first surface of the plate, a flow channel having at least one turn for distributing a reactant gas in a fuel cell. The porous portion defines an outer lateral portion of the at least one turn. Such fluid flow plate(s) provide a water management scheme for a fuel cell and/or fuel cell assembly in which the turn(s) in a flow channel of the fluid flow plate(s) are used for multi-point per flow channel addition, removal, and/or redistribution of water for regulation of the humidity of a stream of reactant gas for membrane hydration and/or cooling. Desirably, for removal of water, the inertia of large water droplets moving along with the reactant gas through the flow channel impact the porous portion which forms the outer lateral portion of the turn(s).

摘要： A method and apparatus for oxygen management in a direct oxidation fuel cell system is provided. The oxygen management apparatus forces oxygen (typically from ambient air) into the cathode chamber of the fuel cell to facilitate the flow of oxygen across the cathode face of the fuel cell. It does so by utilizing the carbon dioxide already produced in the chemical reaction on the anode chamber of the cell. In a first embodiment of the invention, a turbine assembly is placed in fluid communication with the anode chamber of the fuel cell. The turbine assembly is driven when the carbon dioxide produced at the anode chamber flows over the blades of a first turbine (which is referred to herein as “the vent turbine”). The vent turbine is attached to a drive shaft that is used to cause a second turbine (or fan) to draw oxygen (generally from ambient air) into the cathode chamber of the fuel cell. This drawn-in air forces oxygen over the cathode of the fuel cell. The second turbine is referred to herein as “the inlet turbine.” Other embodiments of the invention allow for adjustments to be made depending upon the conditions in which the invention is used.
