Hello,
Just as the title asks, what sort of applications would series and parallel connections of Direct Methanol Fuel Cell suit the best? Based from my understanding of Fuel Cells and experimental results, one cell is not enough to power anything, hence they are used in stacks, in addition series connection provided more voltage, whereas parallel gave more current. Moreover, power density peak was reached in a shorter amount of time in parallel connection vs. series, where it took longer (polarization curve). Any ideas where one connection might be preferable to another? (DMFCs are typically used in commercial sectors I believe).
Thanks!
