    Abstract: An oxygen supply apparatus and method for a fuel cell of an aircraft are provided. The oxygen supply apparatus includes a compressor that generates compressed air by compressing air in the atmosphere and supplies the compressed air to a fuel cell stack, an oxygen tank having a predetermined amount of oxygen stored therein. An aircraft monitoring device monitors the aircraft and determines whether oxygen supply from the oxygen tank is required, and an oxygen supply means switching device switches an oxygen supply means for the fuel cell stack from the compressor to the oxygen tank, or vice versa depending on an outcome of the monitoring.

    Abstract: A system and method of controlling an air blower for a fuel cell vehicle are provided. The method includes determining an operation amount of an air blower to secure a sufficient air flow rate under present operating conditions and obtaining information regarding clogging of an air channel or information regarding a back pressure using the operation amount of the air blower. In addition, a maximum operating range of the air blower is changed based on whether a present state is an air channel-clogged state or a back pressure-increased state.

    Abstract: A fuel cell system includes: an oxygen concentration module to produce oxygen-enriched air by separating nitrogen from air, and a first air supply line connected to the oxygen concentration module to supply air to the oxygen concentration module. The fuel cell system further includes: a heating unit provided in the first air supply line to selectively heat air by using waste heat discharged from an external heat source provided outside a fuel cell stack, a second air supply line connected to the oxygen concentration module and configured to supply air to the oxygen concentration module independently of the first air supply line, a cooling unit provided in the second air supply line and configured to selectively cool air by using outside cold energy, and a stack connection line which connects the oxygen concentration module and the fuel cell stack and supplies the oxygen-enriched air to the fuel cell stack.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for reducing an exhaust hydrogen concentration in a fuel cell system includes a first air cut-off valve (ACV) blocking ambient air supplied to a cathode, a second ACV blocking exhaust hydrogen discharged from the cathode, and an air suction valve (ASV) operating in a first mode connecting the cathode and an intake port of an air compressor and in a second mode blocking connection between the cathode and the intake port of the air compressor. The apparatus also includes a controller for operating the ASV in the first mode to store air of the cathode while the first ACV is opened and the second ACV is closed when hydrogen is supplied to an anode, and for operating the ASV in the second mode to discharge ambient air through an exhaust line while the first ACV is opened and the second ACV is opened when ambient air is supplied to the cathode.
