Abstract(E) | The first generation Mirai was launched in 2014 as the world’s first commercial fuel cell vehicle (FCV). Since then, model-based development (MBD) has played an important role in the design of vehicles, parts, materials, and production to help reduce cost and size, which are the main issues that need to be resolved to further popularize FCVs in the future. In particular, 3D CAE has become an essential part of the design process for cell performance, properties, and structures of fuel cell assembly components. This paper discusses examples of the application of 3D CAE to the development of the flow field channel, catalyst layer (CL), and gas diffusion layer (GDL) in Toyota’s next-generation fuel cell stack. |
