Abstract: A heating method of a heating apparatus is provided. The heating apparatus includes a fuel cell, a power storage device, a heat-electricity conversion element, and a switching unit. The fuel cell is adapted for charging the power storage device. The power storage device is adapted for supplying electricity to the heat-electricity conversion element. The switching unit is adapted for switching the heating apparatus between a first mode and a second mode. The method includes a first heating process in which the fuel cell charges the power storage device and generates heat during a charging process, and a second heating process in which the power storage device supplies electricity to the heat-electricity conversion element and the heat-electricity conversion element generates heat. The first heating process and the second heating process are performed alternatively or simultaneously when the heating apparatus is switched to the first mode or the second mode, respectively.

Abstract: A stacked type fuel cell includes electricity generating modules, at least two cathode flow field plates, and at least one common anode flow field plate. Each electricity generating module includes an anode collector, a cathode collector, a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) between the anode collector and the cathode collector, a fuel diffusion layer, and a cathode moisture layer. The fuel diffusion layer and the cathode moisture layer are respectively located at two sides of the MEA. The anode collector is between the fuel diffusion layer and the MEA, and the cathode collector is between the cathode moisture layer and the MEA. The common anode flow field plate is between two fuel diffusion layers in two adjacent electricity generating modules. The common anode flow field plate and two electricity generating modules located at two sides of the common anode flow field plate are sandwiched between the cathode flow field plates.

Abstract: A control method of replenishing anode fuel for DMFC system is provided. The DMFC system includes at least a fuel cell, a cathode humidity-holding layer, a fuel distribution unit, a control unit, a liquid fuel replenishment device, a fuel storage region, and a temperature detecting device. The temperature detecting device is for detecting an actual temperature of the fuel cell. The control method of replenishing anode fuel includes utilizing the control unit to adjust a fuel replenishment amount supplied from the liquid fuel replenishment device. The fuel replenishment amount is the sum of a basic replenishment amount and a replenishment amount for temperature correction. The basic replenishment amount is a function of actual discharge current of the fuel cell. The replenishment amount for temperature correction is a function of the difference between the actual temperature of the fuel cell and the target temperature.
