This paper represents a mathematical model for proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC)system. Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (also called polymer Electrolyte Membrane fuel cells(PEM)) provides a continuous electrical energy supply from fuel at high levels of efficiency and power density. PEMs provide a solid, corrosion free electrolyte, a low running temperature, and fast response to power.

The effects of different parameters on the performances of proton exchange membrane fuel cells were studied experimentally. Experiments with different fuel cell temperatures, humidification temperatures and backpressures of reactant gases have been carried out. Polarization curves from experimental data are presented and the effects of the parameters on the performance of the PEM fuel cell are discussed. The experimental data obtained in this work are used to validate our 3-D mathematical model. It is found that modeling results agree well with our experimental data.

In this paper we analyze the steady state dynamic behavior of a nonlinear model of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell. This model is used in several theoretical studies and application papers of PEM fuel cells. We indicate limitations and discuss potential constraints of this mathematical model. We establish conditions for the asymptotic stability at steady state by using the first stability method of Lyapunov. We find that the linearized model at steady state is uncontrollable. Specifically, the state variable corresponding to the hydrogen pressure is not controllable. This means that dynamics deviations of the state space variable corresponding to the hydrogen pressure around the steady state equilibrium point cannot be controlled. Due to its stability, the hydrogen pressure we go to the equilibrium point according to its internal (uncontrolled) dynamics so that the model is still applicable for theoretical and practical studies.
