Abstract

This paper reports on air-breathing laminar flow fuel cells (LFFCs) that are fueled with formic acid, methanol, ethanol, hydrazine, or sodium borohydride. Previously we reported the design and fabrication of air-breathing direct formic acid LFFCs [1]; here, we both demonstrate the ability to use a variety of fuels and electrolytes within the same fuel cell design and provide design rules for the optimization of the performance of these direct liquid LFFCs.
