    摘要: Systems and methods for detecting and validating a leak in a fuel cell system are presented. In certain embodiments, various fuel cell stack set points may be adjusted such that adequate H2 flow data may be obtained to identify and validate an H2 leak and/or a location of such a leak. In some embodiments, H2 flow data may be obtained by adjusting certain fuel cell system operating parameters under a variety of operating conditions and/or modes and measuring flow data under such various operational conditions.

    摘要: Apparatus, methods, and systems for estimating hydrogen concentration and/or pressure in an anode compartment of a fuel cell stack in a fuel cell vehicle. In some implementations, the estimates are based on a correlation between a transient dip in voltage in response to an anode to cathode bleed event and a concentration of hydrogen in the anode compartment of a fuel cell stack. Some implementations may comprise initiating a bleed event, sensing a transient dip in voltage in response to the bleed event, and using the correlation to calculate an estimate of a concentration and/or pressure of the gas in the anode compartment. The sensitivity of the correlation and hence the accuracy of estimation may change with the power level and may be accounted for in the correlation.
