摘要:
A fuel cell system and method for driving the same is disclosed. In one embodiment, the fuel cell system includes i) a fuel supply unit, ii) a fuel cell stack in fluid communication with the fuel supply unit, wherein the fuel cell stack has a fuel inlet and a fuel outlet and iii) a bypass pipe configured to transfer fuel received from the fuel supply unit to a fuel outflow pipe connected to the fuel outlet. In one embodiment, the driving method includes i) receiving fuel from a fuel supply unit, ii) transferring the received fuel to a fuel outflow pipe connected to a fuel outlet of a fuel cell stack and iii) discharging non-reacted fuel from a fuel inlet of the fuel cell stack.
摘要:
A direct methanol type fuel cell stack and a direct methanol type fuel cell system using the same are discussed. The fuel cell stack may be configured to allow a concentration gradient of a mixed fuel in which fuel and water are not properly mixed to be uniform without increasing the volume of the fuel cell stack. The fuel cell stack may include at least one cell having an anode, a cathode, an electrolyte separating the anode and the cathode and a mixer coupled to the anode. The mixer may be configured to mix fuel and water and achieve a uniform concentration of the mixed fuel supplied to the anode.
摘要:
A semiconductor equipment control system and method is provided. The semiconductor equipment control system preferably includes semiconductor equipment having a process recipe stored therein and a host connected to the semiconductor equipment through a network. The host preferably includes a database in which a reference recipe is stored and is preferably configured to receive and compare a final modification time of the process recipe with a final modification time of the reference recipe. When the final modifications times are equal, the host is preferably configured to instruct the semiconductor equipment to perform a process according to the process recipe. When the final modification times are different, the host is preferably configured to check a recipe body of the process recipe against a recipe body of the reference recipe to determine if the process recipe is within an established tolerance. If the process recipe is within tolerance, the host may instruct the semiconductor equipment to perform the process according to the process recipe. If the process recipe is not within tolerance, the host preferably interlocks the process. Using this semiconductor equipment and control method, unconditional checking of the process recipe body can be eliminated, thereby resulting in significant time savings and a more efficient manufacturing process.
