Experiments conducted on a commercial fuel cell humidifier determined that the water recovery ratio is the best performance metric because it considers the water supplied to the humidifier. Data from a porous polymer membrane with a hydrophilic additive were analyzed under a heat and mass transfer model. The membrane showed low water uptake profiles at relative humidities below 80 percent, and a steep increase in water uptake above threshold.The experiments were conducted with samples of the porous membrane in a single cell humidifier at isothermal conditions at temperatures of 25, 50, and 75 °C. The water recovery ratio for the porous membrane decreased with increasing flow rate.The model was verified experimentally and its predictions agreed with the measured data.
