This paper seeks to develop 3D dynamic models for polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) and hydrogen tanks, respectively. The dynamic model of PEFCs consists of multiple layers of a single PEFC and couples the various dynamic mechanisms in fuel cells, such as electrochemical double-layer discharging/charging, species transport, heat transfer, and membrane water uptake. The one of hydrogen tanks includes a 3D description of the hydride kinetics coupled with mass/heat transport in the hydrogen tank. Transient of fuel cell during step change in current is simulated. Dynamic responses of the cell voltage and heat generation rate are discussed. Hydrogen absorption process in the tank is considered. Temperature, reaction rate and heat rejection in the fuel tank are presented. Efforts are also made to discuss the coupling of these two systems in practice and associated issues.

Embora não seja tecnologia recente, as células a combustível ou Fuel Cells (FC) continuam recebendo grande atenção, pois são consideradas como "fontes de energia do futuro" devido a características como alto rendimento energético e baixa emissão de poluentes, permitindo a extensão o tempo de vida das reservas fósseis e contribuindo para a melhoria da qualidade de vida. Atualmente, as pesquisas estão direcionadas, principalmente, ao desenvolvimento de FC para aplicações em sistemas móveis e portáteis. De todas as tecnologias existentes, a mais promissora para essa finalidade é a célula a combustível de eletrólito polimérico, conhecida como PEMFC (Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell) cuja pesquisa encontra-se focada, principalmente, no desenvolvimento de membranas poliméricas, com o objetivo de reduzir os custos de produção. Este trabalho será focado nos aspectos físico-químicos do desenvolvimento de membranas poliméricas. Serão discutidos aspectos estruturais do Nafion® relacionado-os as seguintes propriedades físico-químicas: fluxo eletrosmótico, permeabilidade gasosa, transporte de água através da membrana, estabilidade química e térmica. Toda a discussão será realizada para polímeros perfluorados, utilizando o Nafion® como modelo representante dessa classe de polímeros.
