CAD files for building a fuel cell/electrolyser cell suitable for X-ray and neutron imaging

These files are the first prototype concept designs for a multimodal cell that would be suitable for either PEM fuel cells or PEM electrolysers and for use with both X-ray and neutron imaging (either simultaneously or correlatively).The files contained are: A graphite 'inner' component. Two of these must be manufactured (one for the anode and one for the cathode) and their purpose is to provide current collection to/from the cell. If electrolysis is being conducted using neutron imaging, then this component could be manufactured from titanium if needed.A PFA/PTFE 'outer' component, which is designed to be transparent to both X-rays <b>and </b>neutrons, so as not to interfere with the imaging quality, but to provide compression to the cell. This part must be made of a non-hydrogen-containing polymer. Compression screws made of nylon, or anodised aluminium (to make them electrically insulating) can be used to close the cell. A labelled 3D schematic drawing of the cell assembly, indicating the location of compression screws, tubing connections, CCM and current collection.

本归档文件为多模态电池的首版原型概念设计，该电池可适配质子交换膜（PEM）燃料电池或质子交换膜电解槽，且可配合X射线与中子成像使用（支持同时成像或关联式采集）。本次归档包含如下内容：1. 石墨质「内部」组件：需加工两件，分别对应阳极与阴极，用于实现电池的电流集流。若采用中子成像配合电解实验，该组件可按需改用钛材加工。2. 全氟烷氧基树脂（PFA）/聚四氟乙烯（PTFE）质「外部」组件：该组件对X射线与中子均保持透明，不会干扰成像质量，同时可为电池提供压紧作用，需采用不含氢的聚合物制备。3. 压紧螺钉：可选用尼龙或阳极氧化铝（以实现电绝缘）材质，用于锁紧电池组件。4. 带标注的电池组件三维示意图：标注了压紧螺钉、管路接口、催化层涂层膜（CCM, Catalyst Coated Membrane）以及电流集流结构的位置。
