    摘要： A method and system are provided for controlling a fuel cell power plant (10). A demand signal (Mld) representing the anticipated current/power required by the electrical load(s) is provided. A current signal (Iap) representative of the actual current drawn by the load(s) (20) is provided. The greater of the demand signal (Mld) and the current signal (Iap) is selected (46) and utilized to provide a control signal (Mx, Mx′, Mx″) for regulating one or more of the reactants and coolant (24). One or more status signals (Xp, Xp′, Xp″, Vap) indicative of the status of a regulated one of more of the reactant/coolant and/or a respective operating process effected, is provided. Each status signal is transformed to a respective load capability signal (61, 61′, 61″). The lesser of the demand signal (Mld) and each of the load capability signals (61, 61′, 61 ″) is selected (62) to provide an output signal (Mi) for commensurately controlling a system load (20, 32).

    摘要： A simplified solid polymer electrolyte fuel cell power plant utilizes porous conductive separator plates having central passages which are filled with circulating coolant water. The coolant water passes through a heat exchanger which rejects heat generated in the power plant. Water appearing on the cathode side of each cell membrane is pumped into the water circulation passages through the porous oxidant reactant flow field plates by a positive .DELTA.P created between the cathode reactant flow field of each cell and the coolant water circulation passages between each cell. In order to create the desired .DELTA.P, at least one of the reactant gas streams will be referenced to the coolant water loop so as to create a coolant loop pressure which is less than the referenced reactant gas stream pressure. Excess water is removed from the coolant water stream. The system can operate at ambient or at elevated pressures. Each cell in the power plant is individually cooled on demand, and the power plant does not require a separate cooling section or reactant stream humidifying devices.

    摘要： A fuel cell power plant having a fuel cell assembly includes an anode provided with a fuel stream, a cathode provided with an oxidant stream, an ion exchange membrane oriented between said anode and said cathode, and a coolant loop circulating a coolant stream in fluid communication with the fuel cell assembly. An oxidant source is utilized for supplying the fuel cell assembly with the oxidant stream at a predetermined pressure, while a coolant regulator oriented along the coolant loop lowers the coolant stream to a subambient pressure prior to the coolant stream coming into fluid communication with the fuel cell assembly.

    摘要： The cell stack assembly of a fuel cell power plant is provided with a cooling system which provides optimum cell operating temperatures across each cell in the stack and also produces an optimum amount of steam. The cooling system includes at least one bypass through which a fraction of the coolant is fed from the coolant inlet side of the stack to the coolant outlet side of the stack. The bypass ensures that a fraction of the coolant is not heated to its target operating temperatures as it passes through the stack. This results in a more uniform cell operating temperature profile from the coolant inlet to the coolant outlet side of each cell; and also results in a lessening of excess steam production in the power plant.
