AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Conventional humidifiers for fuel cells exhibit low overall humidification performance due to uneven humidification of hollow fiber membranes, with inner membranes being less effectively humidified.
Method used
The humidifier design includes a cartridge with an inner case having non-uniform thickness in the Y-axis direction, featuring a first and second segment with average thicknesses greater than a third segment, and buffer members to mitigate membrane vibration, ensuring even humidification across all membranes.
Benefits of technology
This design enhances humidification performance by increasing the proportion of hollow fiber membranes utilized, improving overall humidification efficiency and reducing membrane damage.
