摘要: Methods, articles, and systems for controlling the internal operating temperature of fuel cell systems, such as planar fuel cell arrays. The heat management system conducts heat away from the fuel cell without disturbing the flow of gases around the fuel cell layer and without the need for the equipment to disturb the flow of gases around the fuel cell layer. The present invention also provides a heat transfer system that has a low thermal mass relative to the fuel cell layer or is thermally isolated from the fuel cell layer such that the heat transfer system will not remove substantial amounts of heat from a fuel cell layer during star-up and can be activated to dissipate heat from the fuel cell only as needed.

摘要: A complete fuel cell system (10) is described. The fuel cell system (10) comprises at least two fuel precursors (16, 18) that react to create hydrogen. A solid fuel precursor (18) can be carried in disposable fuel cartridges (100). A passive pressure control system including a dose pump (22) and a pressure equalization system (24, 300, 504) is provided to dose a liquid fuel precursor (16) to the solid fuel precursor (18) in the fuel cartridge (100). An outer wall (102) of the fuel cartridge can form a part of the passive pressure control system. The solid fuel precursor may include larger metallic particles coated by another fine metallic particles such that multiple micro galvanic cells are formed on the surface of the larger metallic particles. The fuel cell system may also include a gas buffer (40) that stores produced hydrogen that in unneeded by the fuel cell, and a water trapping mechanism (604). The fuel cell system may also have an electronic vent (46) that consumes unneeded hydrogen.

摘要: A cartridge holder houses a fuel cartridge between a first flat plate and a second flat plate, one each side of which is connected by a joining section, in a detachable manner. A fuel cell module and a second fuel cell module are fixed to the outer surface of the first flat plate and the outer surface of the second flat plate, respectively. As the fuel cartridge is housed in the cartridge holder, the first flat plate and the second flat plate are pressed against and then attached firmly to the outer surfaces of the fuel cartridge.
