  • Publication number: 20120145280
    Abstract: An apparatus for injecting a coolant for a fuel cell vehicle is provided. More specifically, a coolant tank stores a coolant and a coolant pump, disposed in a coolant supply line connecting the coolant tank and the stack cooling loop is configured to pressure-transfer the coolant to the stack cooling loop, and circulating the coolant, which has passed through the stack cooling loop, to the coolant tank. A bubble elimination unit, disposed at a rear stage of the coolant pump in the coolant supply line, eliminates the bubbles in the fuel cell stack through vibration. This bubble elimination unit may be configured as an ultrasonic wave excitor for exciting the stack cooling loop with ultrasonic waves.

  • Publication number: 20120129067
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cooling water supply system and a cooling water supply method for a fuel cell system in which a temperature difference in a fuel cell stack is prevented from increasing due to a rapid increase of a power output required in the stack by detecting a requested/demanded output. According to the present invention, a temperature difference in the stack due to a rapid increase in a power output demanded by the fuel cell stack is prevented from being rapidly increased by detecting a requested output (e.g., an amount an accelerator pedal is pushed, etc.) to calculate a power output required by the stack, calculating a predicted amount of generated heat depending on a required power output, and calculating a flux of supplied cooling water corresponding to the predicted amount of generated heat to control a flow rate of a cooling water supplier.
