The present invention provides an intake circulatory system for a zinc air fuel cell, including a housing, a zinc air cell, an air supply system and an air collecting system. The housing is partitioned on the inside of the intake circulatory system for a zinc air fuel cell to form a first space and a second space. The zinc air cell is assembled on the inside of the housing, and includes a discharging region that is located in the first space and a charging region that is located in the second space.

In addition, the air collecting system includes an air collecting device that is in connection with the air intake device, and at least one air output pipe exists in between the air collecting device and the second space. Further, in accordance with the present invention, the air supply device transmits external air to the first space via the air intake device. The discharging region of the zinc air cell has a chemical reaction with oxygen from the external air to generate electricity. The charging region produces oxygen by generating electricity to perform a reduction reaction. The air collecting device absorbs oxygen and also transmits the oxygen to the air intake device. The external air and the oxygen are mixed and subsequently enter the first space. As such, the power supply efficiency of the discharging region is increased in accordance with the present invention.

The present invention provides a solid oxide fuel cell system capable of preventing excess temperature rises while increasing overall energy efficiency. The present invention is a solid oxide fuel cell system, including: a fuel cell module, a fuel supply device, a heat storing material, and a controller which, based on power demand, increases the fuel utilization rate when output power is high and to lower it when output power is low, and changes the electrical power actually output at a delay after changing the fuel supply amount. The controller has a stored heat estimating circuit for estimating the surplus heat based on fuel supply and on power output at a delay relative thereto. When a utilizable amount of surplus heat is accumulated in the heat storage material, the fuel supply is reduced so that the fuel utilization rate increases relative to the same electrical power.
