<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell system which is advantageous to simplification of the system. <P>SOLUTION: The fuel cell system has a reform device 2 having a reform section 20 for creating a fuel for power generation supplied to a fuel electrode 12 of a fuel cell 1 by reform reaction of a raw material, and a combustion burner section 22 for heating the reform section 20 so as to be suitable for reform reaction by burning the fuel for burning; an oxidizer gas conveying source 3 arranged at an upstream side or a downstream side of the oxidizer electrode 14 of the fuel cell 1 and supplying an oxidizer gas including oxygen to an inlet 14i of an oxidizer electrode 14 of the fuel cell 1; and a communication passage 4 for communicating an outlet 14p of the oxidizer electrode 14 of the fuel cell 1 and an inlet 22i of the combustion burner section 22. The communication passage 4 supplies an oxidizer off-gas after reaction of power generation discharged from an outlet 14p of the oxidizer electrode 14 of the fuel cell 1 to the combustion burner section 22 in order to burn it together with the fuel for burning. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
