“…The PEM electrolyzer cell voltage (V cell ) was expressed as equation (1), where E is the open circuit voltage, h act is the activation overpotential, h ohm is the ohmic overpotential and h diff is the diffusion overpotential [21,29]. Using the Nernst equation, the open circuit voltage was calculated by equation (2), where E 0 rev is the reversible cell voltage (1.23 V), R is the gas constant, T is the temperature of the electrolyzer; z is the number of moles of electrons transferred per mole of H 2 ; F is Faraday's constant; P H2 ,P O2 and P H2O are the partial pressures of hydrogen, oxygen, and water, respectively [20,30].…”
