ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a system and method for passive thermal-fluids management in a liquid feed fuel cell. In particular, the present invention provides a system and method for passive thermal-fluids management in a direct methanol fuel cell having a methanol storage medium and a methanol and water mixing medium. The fuel cell may also include a methanol distribution medium that facilitates uniform distribution of methanol to the mixing medium and the anode, wherein the methanol and water are used for fuel by the direct methanol fuel cell.
