      abstract     = {Metallic flow field plates, also called bipolar plates, are
                      an important component of fuel cell stacks, electrolyzers,
                      hydrogen purification and compression stacks. The
                      manufacturing of these plates by means of stamping or
                      hydroforming is highly suitable for mass production. In this
                      work, a toolbox is created that is suitable for a screening
                      process of different flow field design variants. For this
                      purpose, the geometry and computational mesh are generated
                      in an automated manner. Basic building blocks are combined
                      using the open source software SALOME, and these allow for
                      the construction of a large variant of serpentine-like flow
                      field structures. These geometric variants are evaluated
                      through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with
                      the open source software OpenFOAM. The overall procedure
                      allows for the screening of more than 100 variants within
                      one week using a standard desktop computer. The performance
                      of the flow fields is evaluated on the basis of two
                      parameters: the overall pressure difference across the plate
                      and the relative difference of the hydrogen concentration at
                      the outlet of the channels. The results of such a screening
                      first provide information about optimum channel geometry and
                      the best choice of the general flow field layout. Such
                      results are important at the beginning of the design
                      process, as the channel geometry has an influence on the
                      selection of the metal for deep drawing or hydroforming
                      processes.},
