Abstract
The present disclosure provides a fuel cell system of a mobility and a method for controlling a fuel cell including a control unit configured to control a remaining current of a fuel cell to be consumed by a plurality of accessories, to select an accessory that is a target to consume the remaining current among the plurality of accessories depending upon a temperature condition and a level of a consumable power of the accessory, and to set a priority of the selected accessories.
Claims10
A fuel cell system of a mobility comprising:
- a control unit configured to control a remaining current of a fuel cell to be consumed by a plurality of accessories, to select at least one accessory that is a target to consume the remaining current among the plurality of accessories depending upon a temperature condition, and to set a current consumption priority of the selected accessories based on a level of a consumable power of the selected accessories,
- wherein the control unit controls the remaining current of the fuel cell to be consumed by operation of the accessories in order of priority, starting with a highest priority, until the remaining current of the fuel cell is consumed,
- wherein the temperature condition includes a cold starting condition and a normal starting condition,
- wherein the consumable power of the accessory is determined by subtracting an output currently consumed by the accessory from a maximum consumable power of the accessory,
- wherein the control unit selects the target to consume the remaining current based on whether the temperature condition is the cold starting condition or the normal starting condition, and
- wherein the control unit sets a priority to an accessory whose consumable power is equal to or higher than a consumed current for consuming the remaining current of the fuel cell among the selected accessories.
