INTACT METHOD OF EVALUATING UNIT CELLS IN A FUEL CELL STACK AND A DEVICE USING THE SAME

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for an intact evaluation of the unit cells in a fuel cell stack. Since the degradation of the unit cells can be detected intactly, i.e. without disassembly of the stack, the time required for the detection and analysis thereof can be greatly reduced.
