BIPOLAR PLATE DESIGN FROM METAL SHEETS FOR POLYMER ELECTROLYTE MEMBRANE FUEL CELLS

摘要

A separator plate for a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell stack constructed of at least two coextensive sheet metal elements shaped to promote the distribution of reactant gases to the electrodes of the fuel cell units of the fuel cell stack. The coextensive sheet metal elements are nestled together and form a coolant flow space therebetween.
