Abstract
This study investigates the impact of compression force on stack performance and the effect of testing conditions on sensitivity of stack performance. It explores the variation of assembly force on the pressure distribution at different positions in a 1 kW proton exchange membrane fuel cell stack. Polarization curves and high-frequency resistance (HFR) changes of the stack were measured under different assembly forces, and the optimal assembly force of the stack was determined using the average single-cell voltage (HFR-free). The sensitivity of testing conditions was optimized, and the optimum test parameters at different current densities were identified within the selected range. Stack stability was tested at different current densities using the optimized test conditions, and the sensitivity of test conditions was verified by the fluctuation amplitude of single cell voltage and internal impedance.

期刊介绍:
Membranes (ISSN 2077-0375) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal of separation science and technology. It publishes reviews, research articles, communications and technical notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided.
