P

PEMFC

👋Welcome

This project aims to develop a platform for open access modeling of the degradation of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. The platform will provide researchers with a tool to simulate the performance and degradation of fuel cells and to evaluate the impact of different materials and designs on fuel cell performance.

The platform is developed using Python and includes modules for particle population balance modeling and percolation theory. These modules will be used to predict lifetime and performance effects of electrode materials based on time-dependent effective properties derived from percolation theory.
