This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18246375 titled 'DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE HYDROGEN CONCENTRATION OF AN EXHAUST GAS IN AN EXHAUST GAS LINE OF A FUEL CELL SYSTEM, AND FUEL CELL SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a device for measuring the concentration of hydrogen in the exhaust gas of a fuel cell system.
- The device includes a sensor that is placed in a tube section of the exhaust gas line.
- The tube section has an inflow opening and an outflow opening.
- A purge line is connected to the tube section between the inflow opening and the sensor.
- A mixing element is used to ensure that different components of the exhaust gas are evenly distributed.
Original Abstract Submitted
The invention relates to a device () for determining the hydrogen concentration of a fluid in an exhaust gas line () of a fuel cell system (), comprising a sensor () which is arranged in a tube section (), wherein said tube section has an inflow opening () and an outflow opening (). A purge line () opens into the tube section () between the inflow opening () and the H2 sensor (). A mixing element () mixes an exhaust gas flowing through the inflow opening () such that different components of the exhaust gas are distributed homogeneously.
