  • Plate for fuel cell including feed and discharge channels having three axes of symmetry
    Patent number: 8227142
    Abstract: The invention concerns a plate for fuel cell, in particular of the ion-exchange membrane type, comprising supply channels (2 to 5) connected to an intake orifice (2a) arranged in the center of one of the surfaces of the plate, and discharge channels (6 to 9) wherein circulate respectively a reactive fluid stream with relatively high concentration and a reactive fluid stream with relatively low concentration. The supply and/or discharge channels are symmetrically arranged on the plate, the supply and discharge channels having similar fractal configurations arranged complementarily to obtain a network of interweaving channels.
