APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING OFFSET OF PRESSURE SENSOR IN FUEL CELL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17861473 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CORRECTING OFFSET OF PRESSURE SENSOR IN FUEL CELL SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus and method for correcting an offset of a pressure sensor in a fuel cell system. This system includes two pressure sensors installed between a fuel supply valve and an anode inlet in a hydrogen supply system.
- The apparatus includes an offset corrector that calculates the offsets between the two sensors based on the condition of the same pressure for each sensor.
- The calculated offsets are then used to correct the offsets for both the first and second pressure sensors.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Fuel cell systems in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and energy production.
- Any application that requires accurate pressure measurements in a fuel cell system.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Offset in pressure sensors can lead to inaccurate readings, affecting the overall performance and efficiency of the fuel cell system.
- This technology solves the problem of offset by calculating and correcting the offsets in the pressure sensors.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved accuracy of pressure measurements in fuel cell systems.
- Enhanced performance and efficiency of the fuel cell system.
- Reduced maintenance and calibration requirements for the pressure sensors.
Original Abstract Submitted
Introduced are an apparatus for correcting an offset of a pressure sensor in a fuel cell system including a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor, which are installed between a rear end of a fuel supply valve of a hydrogen supply system and an anode inlet, and a method of correcting an offset using the same. The apparatus includes an offset corrector that calculates offsets between the sensors from a condition of same pressure of each of the sensors and corrects offsets with respect to the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor using the calculated offsets.
