英文摘要：

Research on how to reduce the influence of contact resistance on electric efficiency of proton exchange membrane fuel cells （PEMFC） has a significant meaning for improving the performance of PEMFC stack. It also has great importance for its development and application. The mathematical description for electrical efficiency of PEMFC in working process was developed. The formation mechanism and influencing factors of contact resistance were studied in detail. Based on the calculations about the electric efficiency of various type of PEMFC at home and aboard, the contact resistance was confirmed contributed the main loss of electric efficiency accounting for 30%-40% of the total.
