    Abstract: An apparatus for pre-activation of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell includes a first plate and a second plate hot pressing the unit cell stack, each having a flow channel supplying water vapor to opposing inner surfaces with the unit cell stack therebetween and including a resistor producing heat, a compressor, a temperature controller and a water vapor supplier connected to the flow channels of the plates. The apparatus for pre-activating a polymer electrolyte fuel cell may be used to prepare a prep-activated integrated body of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell membrane electrode assembly and gas diffusion layers by performing hot pressing while supplying water vapor to the unit cell stack to hydrate the polymer electrolyte membrane. And the apparatus for pre-activating a polymer electrolyte fuel cell is used to monitor physical damage of the membrane electrode assembly based on the change of degree of vacuum at a fuel electrode side and an air electrode side using, thereby detecting the leaking membrane electrode assembly in advance.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a cell or stack for evaluating the performance of a fuel cell and a method of evaluating the performance of the fuel cell using the cell or stack, in which a semiconductor thermoelectric device, attached to the side surface of the unit cell or stack of the fuel cell, is provided so as to evaluate the performance of the fuel cell in an environment in which temperature is maintained at a uniform temperature.According to the present invention, the temperatures of an anode and a cathode of the fuel cell can be precisely changed or maintained. Further, the performance of the fuel cell can also be measured in sub-zero temperature conditions without requiring a separate environmental chamber. A rate of temperature decrease, at which the temperature decreases to a certain sub-zero temperature, or a rate of temperature increase can be precisely controlled. Therefore, the evaluation of the performance of the fuel cell can be easily and precisely achieved in an environmental temperature in which the operation of the fuel cell is required.
