...-concentration or neat methanol so as to enhance the energy density of the fuel cell system. This paper reports a novel system design coupling a catalytic combustor with a vapor-feed air-breathing DMFC. The combustor functions as an assistant heat provider to help transform the liquid methanol into vapor phase...

... model is developed that captures the physics sufficient for dynamic simulation of all processes that affect the system with time scales of > 10 ms . The dynamic model was used to make system design improvements to enable the system to operate dynamically over a wide range of power output (15–100...
