n-Hexadecane Fuel for a Phosphoric Acid Direct Hydrocarbon Fuel Cell

Figure 5

Potential difference between the electrodes (V) and cumulative charge transfer (C/cm²) for an n-hexadecane PAFC. Anode: n-hexadecane flow rate = 0.2 mL/h. Cathode: air flow rate = 245 mL/min. Pressure = 1 atm. Temperature = 160°C. Open triangles are data obtained with water flow rate = 5.1 mL/h, current density = 0.04 mA/cm², and H₂O/n-C₁₆H₃₄ = . Open squares are data obtained with water flow rate = 1 mL/h, current density = 0.2 mA/cm², and H₂O/n-C₁₆H₃₄ = .
