Abstract

This article provides a detailed introduction to the current development status of flow field design for hydrogen fuel cell bipolar plates, analyzes the impact of traditional and new flow field designs on fuel cell performance, and explores innovative designs such as biomimetic flow fields and three-dimensional flow fields through numerical simulation and experimental verification by domestic and foreign researchers. Some scholars have also studied the effect of adding protrusions, sub channels, or groove structures in the flow channel on improving the performance of fuel cells.This article provides the latest progress and recent research results in the flow field design of hydrogen fuel cell bipolar plates for future researchers. These contents have important reference value and guiding significance for researchers to further explore new flow field designs and improve flow field structures.
