REFORMING VESSEL FOR INDIRECT INNER REFORM TYPE FUEL CELL

摘要

PURPOSE:To provide a reforming vessel for an indirect inner reform type fuel cell having the capability of maintaining uniform in-plane cell temperature distribution without any use of gas useless for reaction, even if the movement of the cell changes or a load acting thereon fluctuates. CONSTITUTION:The reforming vessel 1 of an indirect inner reform type fuel cell has baffles 3 and 4 alternately projected from right and left side walls to cause a meandering gas flow. In this construction, at least one of the baffles 3 and 4 is made of such a temperature dependency material as free to undergo bending deformation, depending upon the temperature of the cell.
