Abstract
A general mathematical model is presented for calculating the shunt currents and effective operating potentials of the materials in multicell stacks which have electrolyte interconnections between the individual fuel cells. The analysis takes into account the electrochemical polarizations that occur at the positive and negative ends of each shunt path. Numerical results are presented for an acid electrolyte fuel cell stack design.Keywords
