Abstract: A fuel cell assembly (50) having manifold means for providing fuel and air to, and removing spent fuel and air from, flow passageways across the anodes (16) and cathodes (18) in a fuel cell stack. The sizes and proportions of the supply (23',33') and return (27',41') manifolds are optimized, and the total cross-sectional area of the return manifold is about twice the cross-sectional area of the supply manifold. The pressure drop in the manifolds is less than about one-quarter of the total pressure drop across the anode and cathode passageways in the stack, which ratio may be attained by adjusting the thickness of the anode and cathode spacers (38') and/or the size of the chimneys. Widthwise uniformity of flow across the anodes and cathodes is improved by forming each of the manifolds as a plurality of smaller, parallel flow conduits.

Abstract: A component position indicating system which provides an indication when a first component is at the same position relative to a second component as it was at some historical reference time has a cable (11) fixed to the first component and a sheath (6) which surrounds part of the cable (11) and is connected to the second component. In this way relative movement between the first and second components produces movement of the cable within the sheath. One end of the cable (6) is wound around a cable drum (7) which is freely rotatably mounted in a chassis (2) such that movement of the cable (11) within the sheath (6) causes cable to wind onto or off of the drum (7), causing rotation of the drum (7) in the process. Sensing means senses the resulting movement of the drum (7) and records an output characteristic indicative of the position of the drum (7) relative to the chassis (2) so as to enable a particular relative position between said first and second components to be identified and accurately reproduced.

Abstract: The signal levels of vibration waveform signals outputted by knock sensors (11,12) are extracted at a filter processing section (18) for each of a plurality of frequency bands. The mean value of the signal levels in the frequency bands at a point in time when variation of the signal levels in the frequency bands is minimum computed, and the mean value is detected as a background level. A knock characteristic parameter, is computed based on the extracted signal levels in the frequency bands. The knock characteristic parameter is compared with the background level to obtain a knock intensity. If the knock intensity is equal to or greater than a knock determination value, it is determined that knock that exceeds a permissible level is occurring. If the knock intensity is less than the knock determination value, it is determined that knock that exceeds the permissible level is not occurring.
