  • Patent number: 6467698
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a fuel cell that generates electricity and water, which fuel cell includes a first end, a second end electrically coupled to the first end, and a water outlet. The water outlet of the fuel cell is connected to at least one of a washing system, a cooling system, a humidification system, and combinations thereof. In addition, a method is described for utilizing water produced by a fuel cell that includes generating water from the fuel cell, and conveying a first portion of the generated water to a component of a vehicle, which component, upon actuation, transfers a liquid comprising a portion of the first portion from the component to a point distal therefrom.
