PREVENTING CORROSION IN A FUEL CELL

摘要

The invention relates to a method for protecting against corrosion in an assembly of electrochemical cells (C1, C2, C3) included in a fuel cell during the extinction phase of the fuel cell, including the steps of: measuring the voltage across the terminals of each of the cells to be protected; when the measured voltage of a cell is higher than a protection threshold, discharging (50) said cell into an electric load (R1, R2, R3); and, when the measured voltage of a cell is lower than said protection threshold, uncoupling said cell from the electric load.
