Fuel cell, e.g. for vehicle, is supplied by compressor with air from a preheater system that is connected to the cathode

摘要

The fuel cell [1] has a cathode [7] that receives preheated air. The air humidity is raised by introducing water into the air intake of a compressor from a container [4]. Hydrogen is also supplied [5]. The mixture passes through a feed unit [2] to the fuel cell. A cooler [9] is also connected to the fuel cell an exhaust gas passes through a separate cooler [12] and condenser [13].
