Abstract
A fuel cell system having a gas-liquid separator that comprises (a) a housing defining an inlet, an outlet, and a longitudinal flow through passage extending between the inlet and the outlet; (b) a plurality of baffles arranged in longitudinally spaced serial relation in and along the passage and each blocking a portion of the cross section of the passage; and (c) means mounting the baffles for relative movement to selectively vary the composite cross-sectional blockage defined by the baffles relative to a sensed parameter of the fuel cell system.
