摘要:
A molten carbonate fuel cell includes unit cells and separator plates stacked alternately, with each unit cell having an anode of porous nickel-base alloy, a cathode of porous nickel-oxide doped with lithium, and an electrolyte plate including a eutectic mixture of a carbonate of alkaline metals disposed between the anode and cathode. The separator plate is a heat-resistant metal plate. The anode of porous nickel-base alloy contains 1 to 10 weight % of at least one of molybdenum and tungsten, resulting in less deterioration after a long operation.
摘要:
There is provided an internal reforming type molten carbonate fuel cell comprising unit cells, bipolar plates and plate-like reformer each having the same peripheral shape and being stacked to form a cell stack which is penetrated by an inside manifold for supplying the raw fuel, exhausting the reacted gas, etc., wherein the plate-like reformer is provided with props and reforming catalyst so arranged that uniform temperature distribution in the cell, reduced IR loss in operation, and long life were obtained.

A fuel cell system has a fuel cell of solid polymer type, a rectangular parallelepiped sealing container for accommodating hydrogen occlusion alloy for occluding hydrogen to be supplied to said fuel cell, a connection portion provided in a hydrogen passage between said sealing container and said fuel cell for connecting said sealing container and said fuel cell detachably, a valve mechanism provided in said hydrogen passage for opening and shutting hydrogen gas, and a hydrogen flow rate control mechanism provided in said hydrogen passage for controlling the flow rate of hydrogen gas, and/or hydrogen pressure control mechanism for controlling the pressure of hydrogen gas.
摘要:
A fuel cell comprises a reformer interposed between a fuel electrode and an oxidant electrode and having a preheating zone and a reforming zone in which a reforming catalyst is laid. Fuel gas introduced into the fuel is at first introduced into the preheating zone where it is preheated by heat generated during power generation.
摘要:
A solid electrolyte fuel cell having a multi-layer structure of flat unit cells composed of a solid electrolyte, a first electrode and a second electrode with metal bipolar plates as gas barriers and collectors preferably made of foam metal or a foam alloy interposed between the adjacent unit cells. A fuel gas and an oxidizing gas are supplied to the fuel cell so that they flow in the directions crossing each other with the solid electrolyte interposed therebetween. The metal bipolar plate is preferably provided with grooves so that the fuel gas and the oxidizing gas can be uniformly distributed over the plate.
摘要:
This invention provides a solid electrolyte fuel cell operable with high efficiency even in the temperature range of about 850.degree. to 650.degree. C., The invention is characterized by the use of a novel perovskite double oxide of the composition A.sub.X B.sub.Y O.sub.3-.alpha.. The fabrication of the electrolyte, air electrode and fuel electrode layers by tape casting has contributed to marked improvement in processability and productivity.
