    摘要: A fuel cell system comprises a reformer for generating hydrogen from fuel, at least one electricity generator for generating electric energy through an electrochemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, a fuel supply unit for supplying the fuel to the reformer and an oxygen supply unit for supplying oxygen to the electricity generator. The reformer includes a main body which has an inner space with a reformer inlet and a reformer outlet. A reaction section is disposed within the inner space of the main body. The reaction section includes a heat-generating element for generating thermal energy from externally applied energy such as electrical current. The heat-generating element has a corrugated structure with a catalyst layer formed on the surface. The corrugated structure defines a plurality of flow passages for the fuel and encourages both even flow distribution and turbulent flow.

    摘要: There is provided a fuel cell system comprising: a reformer for generating a hydrogen gas stream from fuel through a catalytic chemical reaction using thermal energy; and a stack for generating electric energy through a reaction between the hydrogen gas stream and oxygen. The reformer includes: a first reaction section for generating thermal energy through an oxidation reaction of fuel during start-up of the fuel cell system; a second reaction section which communicates with the first reaction section and which generates the hydrogen gas stream from the fuel through a reforming reaction using the thermal energy; and a third reaction section which communicates with the first and second reaction sections, and which generates thermal energy through an oxidation reaction of carbon monoxide contained in the hydrogen gas stream, thereby reducing the concentration of carbon monoxide in the hydrogen gas stream.
