WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/111367
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A fuel cell vehicle is configured such that: the vehicle is provided with an air-cooled fuel cell stack and heat pump air conditioning device; in the heat pump air conditioning device, a compressor, internal heat exchanger, expansion valve, and external heat exchanger are disposed in a refrigerant circulation path in that order; the external heat exchanger includes a cooling external heat exchanger and a heating external heat exchanger; the air-cooled fuel cell stack, cooling external heat exchanger, and heating external heat exchanger are disposed in the front part of the vehicle; and the heating external heat exchanger is heated by outside air obtained after cooling the air-cooled fuel cell stack. An intake duct and exhaust duct are attached to the front and rear of the air-cooled fuel cell stack, respectively, and when viewed from the front of the vehicle, the intake duct and cooling external heat exchanger are disposed at the front side part of the vehicle in a state so as to not overlap each other. The heating external heat exchanger is disposed at the rear part of the exhaust duct. The air conditioning performance of the heat pump air conditioning device can be improved by the above, and the operability of the air-cooled fuel cell stack can also be improved.
