Conductive Heat Transfer in Partially Saturated Gas Diffusion Layers with Evaporative Cooling

Sophia Haussener, Felix N. Büchi, Mirco Magnini

Heat transport is an important, though often neglected function of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Thermal conductivity is a key property, especially in partially water saturated GDLs and when the phase change of wat ...

Seasonality of density currents induced by differential cooling

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Tomy Doda

When lakes experience surface cooling, the shallow littoral region cools faster than the deep pelagic waters. The lateral density gradient resulting from this differential cooling can trigger a cold downslope density current that intrudes at the base of th ...
