Thermodynamics of PEM Fuel Cells Change in enthalpy (ΔH) = - 285, 800 J/mole Gibb’s free energy (ΔG) = ΔH - TΔS ΔG at 25° C: = - 285, 800 J - (298 K)(-163. 2 J/K) = - 237, 200 J Ideal cell voltage (Δ E) ΔE at 25º C = - ΔG/(n. F) = - [-237, 200 J/((2)(96, 487 J/V))] = 1. 23 V ΔG at operating temperature (80º C): = - 285, 800 J - (353 K)(163. 2 J/K) = - 228, 200 J ΔE at 80º C = - [-228, 200 J/((2)(96, 487 J/V))] = 1. 18 V
