Detailed Description

template<int dim>
class FuelCellShop::Layer::DummyCL< dim >

This class characterizes a macro-homogeneous catalyst layer and should be used in the case of constant effective properties, viz., effective_proton_conductivity, effective_gas_diffusivity, effective_electron_conductivity and effective_thermal_conductivity.

Note
These constant effective properties should be set using the parameter file.

template<int dim>
void FuelCellShop::Layer::DummyCL< dim >::derivative_effective_gas_diffusivity ( std::map< VariableNames, std::vector< Tensor< 2, dim > > > &  ) const
virtual

Return the derivative of effective diffusivity w.r.t solution variables/design parameters for nonisothermal with/without two-phase case in the CL.

It transforms bulk diffusion properties computed using compute_gas_diffusion method and transforms it into an effective property, taking into account the porosity, saturation and CL structure (Anisotropic case), at all quadrature points of the cell.

The parameters with respect to which the derivatives are computed are setup in FuelCellShop::Layer::set_derivative_flags()

Compute the effective diffusivty in the CL.

This routine takes the gas diffusivity from FuelCellShop::BinaryDiffusion and transforms it into an effective property taking into account the porosity and structure of the CL

Reimplemented from FuelCellShop::Layer::CatalystLayer< dim >.

template<int dim>
void FuelCellShop::Layer::DummyCL< dim >::effective_gas_diffusivity ( std::vector< Tensor< 2, dim > > &  ) const
virtual

Return the effective diffusivity [m^2/s] for nonisothermal with/without two-phase case in the CL.

It takes bulk diffusivity, computed using compute_gas_diffusion method and transforms it into an effective property, taking into account the porosity, saturation and CL structure (Anisotropic case), at all quadrature points of the cell.

Note
: For two-phase case, set_saturation should be called before using this method, otherwise this method assumes saturation value to be zero.
