Specifically, the researchers used synchrotron-based micro X‐ray computed tomography (CT) to visualize and to quantify the water distribution within gas diffusion layers subject to a thermal gradient. This type of flow, which is due to the evaporation and condensation of water, is known as phase-change-induced (PCI) flow.

This year’s FOA is further developing research on fuel cell electric vehicles using hydrogen made from different domestic resources. Fuel cells are a key way to electrify larger, longer range vehicles, such as light duty trucks and buses, where the cost and weight of batteries are prohibitive. —Shawn Litster.
