About Us

Multiscale Transport Process Laboratory (MTPL), led by Assistant Professor Kazuya Tajiri, investigates the multiphase, multiscale transport phenomena in the thermo-fluid systems.

At present, our primary target of study is polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) for automotive application.
Our expertise includes

  • ex-situ and in-situ measurement of mass and species transport properties
  • characterization of chemical / electrochemical reactions and phase change
  • PEFC in-situ diagnostics
  • cell- / stack-level modeling and computation
  • PEFC system modeling and analysis
