Transient Gas Distribution in Porous Transport Layers of Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Electrolyzers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Here, we elucidated the dynamic gas transport behavior in the anode porous transport layer (PTL) of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers via in operando synchrotron X-ray imaging. The imaging results showed that the gas saturation in the PTL reached steady state more rapidly with a steep current density ramp-up and a shallow ramp-down (compared to a shallow ramp-up and a steep ramp-down, respectively). Additionally, the gas accumulation was characterized by a faster response time compared to that of the gas removal due to the relatively slow migration of residual gas from the catalyst layer-PTL interface to the flow channels. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of gas response behavior on gas saturation during intermittent electrolyzer operation. Intermittent operation led to an increase in residual gas accumulation, which negatively impacted the electrolyzer performance. Our results are key for informing design and operating strategies for mitigating such hysteresis effects and improving the performance of PEM electrolyzers when coupled with intermittent renewable energy sources.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
