dc.description.abstract In this study, the response surface methodology (RSM) has been applied to optimize the operating conditions of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). A quadratic model was developed through RSM in terms of related independent variable to describe the current as the response. The input data required in this model has been obtained experimentally. For this purpose, an experimental set up for testing of direct methanol fuel cell has been established to investigate the effects of temperature and flow rate parameters on the cell performance. Two different analyses for operating conditions were performed applying the response surface method to obtain the maximum power. These analyses were based on the unlimited and minimum methanol consumptions. Methanol flow rate, oxygen flow rate, methanol temperature, humidification temperature and cell temperature were the main parameters considered that they were varied between 2 and 50 ml/min, 100-1000 ml/min, 30-70 degrees C, 30 70 degrees C and 30-80 degrees C in the analyses respectively. The maximum current under the unlimited and minimum methanol consumptions was found as 1230 mA and 582 mA based on the contour plots and variance analysis. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
