<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell module enhancing thermal independence by suppressing thermal energy loss and suitable for lower price and reduced size. <P>SOLUTION: A fuel cell module 12 comprises: a fuel cell stack 22; a partial oxidation reformer 44 reforming mixed gas of a raw fuel and oxidant gas; an exhaust gas combustor 46 combusting fuel exhaust gas and oxidant exhaust gas discharged from the fuel cell stack 22 to generate combustion gas; and a heat exchanger 48 heating up the oxidant gas by heat exchange with the combustion gas. The heat exchanger 48 is arranged on one side of the fuel cell stack 22 while the partial oxidation reformer 44 and the exhaust gas combustor 46 are arranged on the other side of the fuel cell stack 22, and the partial oxidation reformer 44 is provided so as to surround the exhaust gas combustor 46. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
