PEM Fuel Cell: From Electrochemistry to Systems follows the proton exchange membrane fuel cell from the thermodynamics and kinetics of the electrode reactions through transport in porous layers, water management and degradation to system architecture, controls and digital twins.
Each topic moves between physical interpretation, mathematical derivation, a worked example and a computational check, connecting cell-level physics to the engineering decisions made in real fuel cell programs.
