Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers offer substantial potential for large-scale green hydrogen production, owing to its ability for high current density operation and high purity hydrogen production. However, operating PEM electrolyzers at elevated current densities induces gas–liquid two-phase flow on the anode side, leading to substantial mass transport losses. In this work, a three-dimensional, two-phase, dual-scale pore network model is developed to study the mass transport in anode porous transport layer (PTL) and catalyst layer (CL). The pressure distribution, dissolved oxygen concentration distribution and gas–liquid two-phase distribution within the anode PTL and CL under different operating conditions are obtained by dual-scale PNM. The results show that there are localized areas of high dissolved oxygen concentration in the CL, and bubbles are also formed first in these regions. Moreover, as the invasion process proceeds, it leads to an undesirable increase in gas phase saturation due to the presence of invasion within the same height. As the current density increases to 2000 mA cm −2, the gas phase saturation increases to 29 % within the CL and 23 % in the PTL. This work offers theoretical guidance for mitigating mass transport losses in PEM electrolyzers operating at high current densities.
