Patent number: 9021824Abstract: An apparatus that efficiently supplies air to a fuel cell within a vehicle. In particular, a compressor compresses air and supplies a first portion of the compressed air to an evaporator and a second portion to a heat exchanger. A drain valve also discharges condensate water from a fuel cell to the evaporator so that the evaporator receives some of both the compressed air and the condensate water and supplies air humidified by evaporation of the condensate water directly to the fuel cell. A heat exchanger also receives some of the compressed air, transfers heat from the received compressed air to the evaporator, and discharges cooled air to a humidifier. The humidifier receives and humidifies the cooled air and supplies the humidified air to the fuel cell.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: Hyundai Motor CompanyInventors: Jin Woo Koo, Hyun Yoo Kim, Hyuck Roul Kwon
