FUEL CELL SYSTEM

摘要

A fuel cell system (100) is described herein. The fuel cell system (100) includes a fuel cell stack (102) having an anode manifold (104) and a cathode manifold (106). The fuel cell system (100) further includes an anode fuelling apparatus (108) having a reformer (112) fluidically connected to the anode manifold (104) of the fuel cell stack (102). The reformer (112) obtains a first part of anode exhaust from the anode manifold (104) for reforming a hydrocarbon compound to produce an intermediate anode fuel. The anode fuelling apparatus (108) further includes a water gas shift reactor (120) fluidically connected to the anode manifold (104) and to the reformer (112). The water gas shift reactor (120) obtains the intermediate anode fuel from the reformer (112) and obtains a second part of anode exhaust from the anode manifold (104) to produce an anode fuel supplied to the anode manifold (104).
