CELL ASSEMBLY FOR AN ELECTROCHEMICAL ENERGY CONVERTER AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SUCH A CELL ASSEMBLY

摘要

The invention relates to a cell assembly for an electrochemical energy converter, especially a fuel cell assembly with cells (12) arranged in the form of a cell stack (10). The cells (12) each comprise an anode (1), a cathode (2) and an ion-conducting layer (3) arranged therebetween and are separated from one another and electrically contacted by bipolar plates (4). According to the invention, current collectors (4a, 4b) respectively provided for contacting the anodes (1) or the cathodes (2) are formed by a porous structure inside of which flow paths (16, 17) for guiding anode medium and/or cathode medium are provided.
