<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reformer unit for a fuel cell capable of improving the stability in a combustion state. <P>SOLUTION: The reformer unit for the fuel cell includes: a plurality of fuel batter cells 4 which have a fuel gas passage inside thereof, discharge excess fuel gas from an exit of the fuel gas passage, and constitute a fuel battery cell assembly 401; a reformer 5, which is disposed at the upper part of the fuel battery cell assembly 401 and in which reformed gas is reformed to form fuel gas; a detection part which detects a temperature of the reformer 5; and a control part which controls so that only the reformed gas and stream are supplied to the reformer 5, when the control part detects that the reformer 5 is at a temperature capable of reforming the stream. At the upper part of the plurality of the fuel battery cells 4, a combustion part 18 is formed in which the fuel gas reformed by the reformer 5, and oxidizing gas are mixed for combustion. The reformer 5 is disposed at a side farther inward than an end part, in an array direction of the plurality of the fuel battery cells 4 in the fuel battery cell assembly 401. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
