ABSTRACT:
An air cooled fuel cell module is described and which includes an ion exchange membrane having opposite anode and cathode sides; an electrode borne by each of the anode and cathode sides; and a cathode heat sink positioned in heat removing relation relative to the cathode side of the ion exchange membrane, and which, in one form of the invention, can simultaneously act as a current collector.
