Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A fuel cell system and method, the system including power generating fuel cells disposed in a stack, each power generating fuel cell including an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte, a sensing fuel cell including an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte, and a fuel processor configured to purify a fuel provided to the power generating fuel cells and the sensing fuel cell. The anode of the sensing fuel cell is thinner than the anodes of the power generating fuel cells.
