![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Transient behavior of CO poisoning of the anode catalyst layer of a PEM fuel cell Transient behavior of CO poisoning of the anode catalyst layer of a PEM fuel cell](/preview/png/1287261.png)
A one-dimensional transient mathematical model is applied to simulate the carbon monoxide poisoning effect on the performance of a PEM fuel cell. Based on the CO kinetic model developed by Springer et al. [T.E. Springer, T. Rockward, T.A. Zawodzinski, S. Gottesfeld, J. Electrochem. Soc. 148 (2001) A11–A23], the transient behaviors of the CO poisoning process across the anode catalyst layer is investigated. The results show that the hydrogen coverage, θH, decreases with the time due to CO adsorption on the catalyst sites. A higher CO concentration results in fewer available catalyst sites for hydrogen electro-oxidation and a significant decrease in the response time to reach steady state, tss. Increasing the anode overpotential and the gas porosity would result in an increase in the current density, especially at low levels of CO concentration.
