An ultra precise polishing method includes controlling an irradiation time of a surface position of an object to be processed irradiated by a gas cluster ion beam. A profile is created and polished on the surface of the object to be processed by controlling irradiation of the gas cluster ion beam. An ultra precise polishing apparatus includes an irradiating device for irradiating a surface of an object to be processed by a gas cluster ion beam. A positioning device is provided for changing a surface position of the object to be processed, which is irradiated by the gas cluster ion beam by moving the irradiating device and the object to be processed relative to each other. A control device is provided for controlling the irradiation time of a surface position of the object to be processed irradiated by the gas cluster ion beam.

A fuel cell system capable of adequately controlling the water content of a fuel cell is provided. An impedance reference value is stored in a memory for an impedance comparator. The impedance reference value is a reference value that is set in order to prevent the water content in a fuel cell from decreasing too much. The impedance comparator compares a measured impedance value supplied from an impedance operation unit with the impedance reference value and performs scavenging control based on the comparison result.

A fuel cell system includes: an AC impedance measuring unit which measures an AC impedance of a fuel cell at a scavenging start and which measures an AC impedance of the fuel cell at a time when a predetermined time has elapsed from the scavenging start; a scavenging execution time estimation unit which estimates a scavenging execution time based on the AC impedance measured at the scavenging start, the AC impedance measured at the time when the predetermined time has elapsed from the scavenging start, and the predetermined time; and an error processing unit which forcibly terminates scavenging processing if a fuel cell voltage becomes lower than a predetermined threshold value during a period from the scavenging start to the time when the predetermined time has elapsed from the scavenging start.
摘要:
A moisture sensor working to measure a moisture content of a specified measurement gas is provided which consists of an electrochemical cell having a first electrode exposed to the measurement gas and a second electrode exposed to a reference gas and a controller. The electrochemical cell outputs an electrical energy arising from chemical reaction of the measurement gas with the reference gas. The controller controls at least one of voltage appearing across and current flowing through the electrochemical cell and uses one of them to measure the moisture content of the measurement gas. This enables the moisture content to be determined free from the humidify of the measurement gas.

A fuel cell system includes a heat-generation amount detection device for detecting a heat generation amount in a fuel cell, and an evaporation amount controller for controlling an evaporation amount of water in the fuel cell based on the detected heat generation amount. The heat generation amount is detected based on an output electric power of the fuel cell, an output current thereof or a temperature thereof. The evaporation amount of water in the fuel cell is controlled by adjusting at least one humidification amount of hydrogen and oxygen to be supplied to the fuel cell, or by adjusting at least one flow amount of hydrogen and oxygen to be supplied to the fuel cell.

摘要:
Power generated by an engine is inputted to a carrier of a first planetary gear mechanism. Power generated by a motor is inputted to a sun gear of a second planetary gear mechanism. Power from a ring gear of the first planetary gear mechanism and power from a carrier of the second planetary gear mechanism are combined and transmitted to an axle of driving wheels. While power input from the engine to the carrier of the first planetary gear mechanism is maintained, rotation of a sun gear of the first planetary gear mechanism is restricted with a first clutch, a second clutch or a first brake. While power input from the motor to the sun gear of the second planetary gear mechanism is maintained, rotation of a ring gear of the second planetary gear mechanism is restricted with a second brake or a third clutch.

摘要:
In a fuel cell system utilizing fuel cells which generate electric power by a reaction between oxygen and hydrogen, the moisture content within a fuel cell is adjusted to be brought within an appropriate range by adjusting the operating current of the fuel cell. The total amount of electric power generated by the system is maintained at a required value by supplying/obtaining electric power to/from a secondary battery as required, or by utilizing a plurality of separately controlled fuel cells (or fuel cell stacks) and increasing or decreasing the electric power generated by another fuel cell or stack that is currently operating with an appropriate moisture content.
