Processes 2020, 8, 353 9 of 10 influencing process variable. From the results, the optimum temperature (TCell) of the DMFC operation was identified as 333 K. Real-time experimentation was carried out with different cell temperatures, and the results were recorded. It was observed from the experimental data that the maximum power density of 57.6 mW/cm2 at 288 mA/cm2 was achieved with the said operating temperature of 333 K. With this operating temperature, the durability of the DMFC was also verified at different load currents and found to be durable. Author Contributions: This paper is come to the final shape with the conceptualization of R. Govindarasu and recourse of S. Somasundaram. All authors have read and agreed to the published version of the manuscript. Funding: This research received no external funding. Acknowledgments: The authors are grateful to P. Kanthabhaba, Former Professor and Head, Department of Chemical Engineering, Annamalai University, Chidambaram-608002, India. Conflicts of Interest: The authors declare no conflict of interest.
