Abstract

The present invention provides a humidification system for a fuel cell, in which a plurality of membrane humidifiers employing hollow fiber membranes of different kinds having different diameters and pore sizes, or having different numbers of hollow fiber membranes is selectively used according to the amount of current generated from a fuel cell stack or a vehicle output, thus adjusting the humidification amount for dry air to be supplied to a fuel cell stack, and preventing the flooding phenomenon caused at a cathode and the starvation phenomenon in which the air supply is insufficient at the cathode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel cell humidification system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a fuel cell humidification system that can adjust the humidity of dry air to be supplied to a fuel cell stack. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell system is a power generation system that directly converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy. [0003] A fuel cell system generally includes a fuel cell stack for power generation, a fuel supply system for supplying fuel (hydrogen) to the fuel cell stack, and an air supply system for supplying oxygen in the air to the fuel cell stack, oxygen being an electrochemical reaction The required oxidant, and a heat and water management system for removing the heat of reaction of the fuel cell stack from the fuel cell system and controlling the operating temperature of the fuel cell stack. [0004] The fuel cell system having the above-described configuration generates electricity t...
