- •
This paper develops a PEM fuel cell model to study the contact pressure distribution over the MEA using finite element model.
- •
Obtained results are validated via the pressure sensitive films.
- •
It is concluded that increasing the number of cell causes to have better contact pressure distribution over the MEA.
