abstract = {Energy security, climate change and air pollution are all
motivations for further development of fuel cells. Still,
technical problems relating to water management, continue to
hinder the marketability of polymer electrolyte fuel cells
(PEFCs). The impact of dynamic contact angle (CA) boundary
conditions, according to the Kistler model, is evaluated in
this paper with the VOF approach, focusing on droplet
reattachment at the gas channel wall. From this, it is clear
that dynamic CA boundary conditions, compared to static CA
boundary conditions, significantly influence the droplet
reattachment characteristics, for example for the standard
case with a gas velocity of 10 m/s, the first droplet
awaits attachment to the channel wall on the side opposite
the gas diffusion layer surface for a second droplet before
merging and then moving out of the channel together,
attached to the channel wall. The impact from dynamic CAs
becomes even bigger for lower velocities (5 m/s in this
case), where the droplet residence time increases
significantly. It is clear that the channel dimensions, gas
inlet velocity and value of CAs, as well as if a static or
dynamic CA model is used, all have a significant impact on
the droplet characteristics in PEFC GCs.},
