Abstract: Inorder to improve the transport characteristics of liquid water insidea proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC),thesurface structure characteristicsof the gas difusion layer(GDL) wereobtained bywhite lightinterferometryandtheseateddropmethod,andtheinfluenceofthesurfacestructureof thediffusion layer insidethe baffle-type flowchannelon the flowcharacteristicsof the dropletswas investigatedbythe volumeof-fluid(VOF)method.The results show that,regardlessofwhether the surface structureofGDLisconsidered ornot,the hydrophobicityof thesurfaceissignificantlyenhancedwith the increaseofpolytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)content inGDL,which leads totheshorteningof the outflow timeof droplets inthe baffle-typerunner, thereductionof the spreading areaof thedroplets,and thecorresponding reductionof the pressure drop in therunner.And compared with the smooth GDL surface,the irregular structure and pore characteristics of theactual rough GDLsurface significantly enhance thedropletadhesion,resulting ina longer flow timeof the dropletson the rough surface,the spreading area increasing,and the pressure dropin the flow channel increasing.When the PTFE mass percentage content is 40% ,the droplet flow time on the actual rough GDL surface is shortened by 28.57% ,the pressure drop in the flowchannel is reduced by 16.32% ,and the spreading areaof the droplets showesa tendency to decrease.
