In this study, we present optical remote sensing of oxygen and water vapor concentration in gas flow channels in an operating polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) by using Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS). Wavelengths of the diode laser are 1392nm for measurement of water vapor concentration and 760nm for measurement of oxygen concentration, respectively. We demonstrated that the optical remote sensing based on TDLAS techniques could detect variation of oxygen and water vapor concentration in the PEMFC channel.
