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. The 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 offsets between the sensors based on the condition of the same pressure for each sensor.
  • The calculated offsets are then used to correct the offsets with respect to the first and second pressure sensors.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Fuel cell systems in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and energy generation.
  • Any application where accurate pressure measurement is crucial, such as industrial processes or medical devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Offset in pressure sensors can lead to inaccurate readings and affect the overall performance and efficiency of the fuel cell system.
  • By correcting the offset, the accuracy of pressure measurements is improved, ensuring reliable operation of the fuel cell system.

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 downtime due to more reliable pressure readings.


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.
