Abstract
Fuel cell is expected in realizing a low carbon society. However, objective comparison of cell is difficult because cell has been developed by various manufactures. Therefore, strength evaluation method of cell hasn't been established. In the present study, we aimed at the establishment of strength evaluation method about cell. Same models of small punch testing were made by finite element method. Therefore, in the contact state of the plates, change in stress distribution into experiment condition was analyzed by finite element method. As the results, experiment condition that contact stress is higher is found.
