A control method of a cooling water pump of fuel cell vehicle is provided. The method includes comparing a derived temperature value, including a cooling water temperature of a fuel cell or an estimated temperature of a stack of the fuel cell, with predetermined temperature criteria and comparing a required output value of the stack of the fuel cell with predetermined output criteria.

Abstract:
An emergency start device of a fuel cell vehicle having a motor as a driving source is provided and includes a fuel cell that supplies power to a motor and an air blower that supplies air to the fuel cell. A high voltage battery supplies power to the air blower and a direct current (DC) converter increases an output of the high voltage battery to transfer the output to the air blower. In addition, a first switch transfers or intercepts an output of the high voltage battery to the air blower. By directly transferring a voltage of the high voltage battery to the air blower, the fuel cell is driven, when the DC converter fails while driving by the high voltage battery.
