[0002] In a fuel cell power generation system, hydrogen produces electrons and protons under the action of anode catalyst, and protons combine with oxygen at the cathode to generate water and electrons through a proton membrane. Among them, the high-purity oxygen gas introduced at the cathode side still has a high oxygen content at the outlet of the stack after the reaction, and the direct discharge of the high-quality cathode oxidant is a waste.

[0078] The gas pressure sensor P4 is arranged at the output end of the wet side branch of the humidifier, and is used to obtain the exhaust gas pressure of the air out of the stack.
[0079] The gas pressure sensor P5 is arranged in the connecting pipeline between the cathode main proportional valve and the ejector, and is used to obtain the gas pressure at the jet inlet of the cathode main proportional valve as another monitoring index of the oxygen pressure at the front end of the main proportional valve, and can be used to judge the ejector return flow.
