Abstract

In the compartments of the fuel cell are located intermediate elements leaving two free spaces of minimum volume in the vicinity of the two electrodes respectively, which delimit each compartment. These two free spaces extend substantially over the whole area of the electrodes and the intermediate elements are provided with perforations for ionic conduction between the two free spaces.
