Dear All
I was using the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) model available in the COMSOL library of Batteries and Fuel cell. However in that model, I found that the user needs to input the inlet velocities at the anode and cathode respectively which remains unchanged.
In actual fuel cell the inlet velocities change depending upon the applied load. Only the respective stoichiometries (multiples of the actual consumed reactant) at anode and cathode remain constant. If anybody else has used the same fuel cell model and find this problem or if someone has used a different approach to vary the velocities, their assistance would very much be appreciated.
