MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521131475 A) filed by Mit Art, Design And Technology University, Pune, Maharashtra, on Dec. 24, 2025, for 'modular cylindrical hydrogen fuel cell system with integrated gas management.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Ganesh Rajaram Pathak; Yash Garg; and Aditya Tukaram Sapate.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A modular cylindrical hydrogen fuel cell system is disclosed. The system comprising a plurality of fuel cells stacked together. Each fuel cell stack (100) comprising membrane-electrode assembly (MEA) (20) enclosed within a cylindrical housing (10) and coupled between bipolar plates having spiral gas flow channels. The spiral channels provide uniform distribution of hydrogen and oxidant while reducing pressure drop and enhancing reactant utilization. A water and thermal management arrangement facilitates in passive water removal and maintains the stack temperature within an optimal range. A sealing and compression assembly ensures proper gas sealing, mechanical stability, and efficient electrical contact between layers. The system provides improved power density, reduced parasitic losses, and extended lifespan by integrating passive water management, efficient thermal control, and compact structural design without requiring active purging or complex cooling mechanisms."
