An exhaust duct of a fuel cell exhaust system includes a convolute duct, a resonator coupled to and in fluid communication with the convolute duct, a mid-duct coupled to and in fluid communication with the resonator, and a tail duct coupled to and in fluid communication with the mid-duct, the tail duct comprising a lower duct and an upper duct. The upper duct includes an incline duct, a transition duct, a decline duct, and a hydrogen sensor having a portion positioned within the transition duct. A first portion of an exhaust is diverted to the lower duct and a second portion of the exhaust is diverted to the upper duct and measured by the hydrogen sensor to determine hydrogen content of the exhaust.
