ABSTRACT:
A cooling system is connected to a fuel cell stack which has a hydrogen inlet, an air inlet, a coolant inlet, a coolant outlet and an exhaust water outlet. The cooling system includes a heat exchange unit coupled to the coolant inlet and the coolant outlet, a coolant pump, and a blower for blowing air through the unit. An evaporator is exposed to the blown air, and a conduit communicates exhaust water from the exhaust water outlet to the evaporator. The exhaust water evaporates in and cools the blown air. The evaporator may be a wick mounted on an exterior surface of the heat exchange unit. The evaporator unit may include water injectors which spray exhaust water into the blown air. The injectors are mounted between a blower and a radiator. A removable porous evaporator element is mounted between the injectors and the radiator.
