Computational Elektrochemistry

 Head: Prof. Dr. Arnulf Latz
 
 
The further improvement of performance, durability and cost of fuel cells and batteries requires a detailed understanding of the fundamental physical, chemical, and fluid mechanical processes occurring within the cell. At the Computational Electrochemistry, multi-scale and multi-physics models as well as modern numerical simulation methods are developed and applied. Our particular expertise is in the area of microstructure-resolved simulations. The activities are dedicated to solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC), as well as lithium-ion,  post-lithium-ion, and post-lithium batteries.

The aim of the activities is to support the knowledge-based development of electrochemical energy technology at DLR. This happens with regard to two central aspects.
  • Model-based interpretation of experimental observations Through a detailed interpretation our understanding of the basic processes is driven forward. 
  • Model-based optimization of design, performance and longevity Comprehensive simulation calculations support the technological development of fuel cells and batteries.

The activities are carried out in an interdisciplinary team and take place in close cooperation with the department's experimental departments.
