==FUEL CELL VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244876 titled 'FUEL CELL VEHICLE

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a fuel cell vehicle that can improve fuel consumption in a cost-effective manner by selecting between outside air and compressed air stored in a tank to supply to the fuel cell based on pressure levels.

* Fuel cell vehicle with a fuel cell, an air tank for compressed air storage, and a control section for selecting air supply based on pressure levels.
* Selection between outside air and compressed air for fuel cell supply based on the pressure of the compressed air in the tank.

== Potential Applications ==
The technology can be applied in the automotive industry for the development of more efficient fuel cell vehicles.

== Problems Solved ==
1. Improved fuel consumption in fuel cell vehicles.
2. Cost-effective utilization of compressed air for power generation.

== Benefits ==
1. Increased fuel efficiency.
2. Reduced operating costs.
3. Environmentally friendly power generation.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Optimizing fuel cell vehicles for commercial transportation fleets.

== Possible Prior Art ==
There may be prior art related to fuel cell vehicles utilizing compressed air for power generation, but specific examples are not provided in the patent application.

== Unanswered Questions ==

=== How does the control section determine the optimal air supply for the fuel cell based on pressure levels? ===
The patent application does not delve into the specific algorithms or mechanisms used by the control section to make the selection between outside air and compressed air.

=== What are the potential maintenance requirements for the air tank storing compressed air in the fuel cell vehicle? ===
The patent application does not address the maintenance needs or potential issues related to the air tank storing compressed air in the vehicle.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

To provide a fuel cell vehicle that can improve fuel consumption in a cost-effective manner. A fuel cell vehicle of the present disclosure includes: a fuel cell; an air tank configured to store compressed air; and a control section configured to make a selection for selecting which of outside air and the compressed air in the air tank is to be supplied to the fuel cell on a basis of a first pressure, the first pressure being a pressure of the compressed air in the air tank.
