Fuel Cells are growing in importance as sources of sustainable energy and will doubtless form part of the changing programme of energy resources in the future. The Handbook of Fuel Cell Modelling looks at how engineers can model fuel cell systems to get optimal results for any application. Modelling is mainly concerned with the electrodes and electrolytes in fuel cell systems, and this book is a practical summary of how to create models, how to manipulate them and how to interpret results. It is a hands-on book which is high in detail and written by experts in the field.

The only book available in the fast growing area of fuel cell modelling. Includes practical problems and solutions to enable readers to use the book as a starting point for their own modelling. Written by leading experts in the field.
