<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell system for suppressing the abnormal potential of a fuel cell and the breakage of an electrolyte membrane at starting the fuel cell. <P>SOLUTION: The fuel cell system comprises the fuel cell, an anode gas pressure regulating means for regulating the pressure of anode gas to be supplied to the fuel cell, and a cathode gas pressure regulating means for regulating the pressure of cathode gas to be supplied to the fuel cell. The pressure of the anode gas to be supplied to the fuel cell when started is set to be higher than the pressure of the anode gas to be supplied to the fuel cell when generating power. When making the pressure of the anode gas rise up to the set pressure, a pressure control means controls the anode gas pressure regulating means and the cathode gas pressure regulating means to start the pressure rise of the cathode gas in response to starting the pressure rise of the anode gas. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
