Abstract

This report summarises the development and contemporary state-of-the-art of methods for modelling the role of liquid water ("two-phase phenomena") in relevant parts of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The review focuses on low temperature PEMFCs, considering theoretical methods applicable to the assessment of water transport effects in continuum models, in which water content may be treated as a locally homogenised variable. The review aims to provide a documentary, definitional basis for future comparison between theoretical methods.
