A method for optimizing a fuel cell diffusion media having a spatially varying mass transport resistance is provided. The method includes at least two passes where a first-pass D/Deff profile for the fuel cell diffusion media is provided and applied to a computational model of the fuel cell having a baseline variable profile. At least one first-pass variable profile resulting from the application of the first-pass D/Deff profile to the computational mode is calculated and compared to a desired variable range. The first-pass D/Deff profile is refined, if necessary, to provide a second-pass D/Deff profile. A relative performance of the fuel cell with a second-pass variable profile resulting from an application of the second-pass D/Deff profile is determined. The second-pass D/Deff profile is refined, if necessary, until the second-pass variable profile has a desirable performance. An effective D/Deff profile is thereby provided.
