FUEL CELL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240304842 titled 'FUEL CELL SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation:
The abstract describes a patent application for a fuel cell system that utilizes an injector and a linear solenoid valve to regulate the output amount of the fuel cell.
- The injector operates when the fuel cell output is in a specific range, while the linear solenoid valve operates when the output is in another range.
- When the output amount of the fuel cell falls within a certain region, the linear solenoid valve opens to introduce fuel gas and off-gas into the fuel cell to maintain the necessary hydrogen threshold for operation.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilization of an injector and a linear solenoid valve to regulate fuel cell output.
- Automatic adjustment of the linear solenoid valve to maintain the hydrogen threshold required for fuel cell operation.
Potential Applications:
- Automotive industry for fuel cell vehicles.
- Power generation for remote locations.
Problems Solved:
- Ensures consistent operation of the fuel cell by maintaining the necessary hydrogen threshold.
Benefits:
- Improved efficiency and reliability of fuel cell systems.
- Reduced maintenance and operational costs.
Commercial Applications:
Fuel Cell System with Injector and Linear Solenoid Valve for Enhanced Efficiency in Automotive and Power Generation Industries
Questions about Fuel Cell System with Injector and Linear Solenoid Valve:
1. How does the linear solenoid valve contribute to the operation of the fuel cell system? 2. What are the potential benefits of using an injector in a fuel cell system?
Original Abstract Submitted
an injector of a fuel cell system operates when the output amount of a fuel cell is in a first output region, and a linear solenoid valve operates when the output amount of the fuel cell is in a second output region. when the output amount of the fuel cell is in a third output region that is included in the second output region, the linear solenoid valve opens at such a degree that fuel gas and fuel off-gas necessary to secure a hydrogen amount threshold that is a smallest hydrogen amount necessary for operation of the fuel cell are capable of being introduced from an ejector into the fuel cell.
