Fabrication of Graphite Composite Bipolar Plate for Miniature PEMFCs by Micro Planing with Multi-Cutter
Abstract:
This study explores the feasibility of using a novel process, micro planing with multi-cutter, to fabricate graphite composite bipolar plates of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Through the use of multi-cutter, this study succeeds in machining micro flow channels with dimensions of 0.2 mm×0.23 mm×0.4 mm (channel width × rib width × depth size) on graphite composite bipolar plate (21 mm × 80 mm × 1.5 mm), in a reaction area of 10 mm × 60 mm. The graphite composite plates fabricated by multi-cutter are tested for cell performance under varying back-pressures. Results show that the cell performance increase with the rising back-pressures and can be promoted apparently by decreasing the size of flow channels.
