Disclosed is a device for removing residual hydrogen in a fuel cell. The device for removing residual hydrogen in a fuel cell sucks residual hydrogen gas in a fuel cell system and easily removes the sucked hydrogen gas so as to prevent a fire, an explosion, and the like which may occur due to residual hydrogen in the fuel cell system during maintenance work of a fuel cell vehicle. In particular, the device may be manufactured as a simple ejector structure in which a nozzle, a venturi, and a diffuser are sequentially combined, the nozzle and the venturi are combined, and the like to use compressed air as a driving flow and use gas inside a fuel cell system as a suction flow and thus easily remove the residual hydrogen.

Device for removing residual hydrogen in fuel cell

A fuel cell system is disclosed. More specifically, the fuel cell system may include a stack that includes an electrical generation assembly of a fuel cell, an air supply unit that supplies air to a cathode of the fuel cell, a humidifier that humidifies exhaust air that is exhausted from the cathode and supply air that is supplied from the air supply unit, a hydrogen supply unit that supplies the anode of the fuel cell with hydrogen, and a water trap that traps condensate that is generated by the anode and exhausts it. In particular, the supply air is supplied to an upstream side of the humidifier and the condensate that is trapped in the water trap is supplied to an upstream side of the humidifier.
