After the exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust port of the fuel cell 10 is treated by the water-vapor separator 20, the separated exhaust gas is discharged to the outdoor air through the exhaust pipe, and in consideration of the possibility of an unexpected situation that the outside of the exhaust pipe catches fire or there is open fire, the flame arrester 30 for preventing the external flame from spreading to the indoor hydrogen fuel cell 10 is arranged outdoors, so as to improve the safety of the hydrogen fuel cell exhaust gas discharge system. That is, when a fire occurs outdoors or an open fire occurs, it can be stopped outdoors by the flame arrester 30, so that the hydrogen fuel cell 10 indoors is isolated from flames outdoors, thereby preventing a safety accident due to hydrogen explosion from occurring.
In the above embodiment, the air inlet of the water-vapor separator 20 and the air outlet of the hydrogen fuel cell 10 are connected by the first exhaust pipe, the air outlet of the water-vapor separator 20 and the flame arrester 30 are connected by the second exhaust pipe, the first exhaust pipe is obliquely arranged between the water-vapor separator 20 and the hydrogen fuel cell 10, and the inlet end of the first exhaust pipe is higher than the outlet end of the first exhaust pipe, the second exhaust pipe is obliquely arranged between the water-vapor separator 20 and the flame arrester 30, and the inlet end of the second exhaust pipe is lower than the outlet end of the second exhaust pipe.
In consideration of the exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust port of the fuel cell 10, condensed water may be generated at the inner wall of the first exhaust pipe in the process of entering the water vapor separator 20 via the first exhaust pipe. In order to prevent the condensed water from being collected in the first exhaust pipe to affect the discharge of the exhaust gas, the first exhaust pipe may be disposed obliquely between the hydrogen fuel cell 10 and the water-vapor separator 20 such that the condensed water collected on the inner wall of the first exhaust pipe flows into the water-vapor separator 20 and is then discharged into the exhaust pipe through the water discharge opening of the water-vapor separator 20.
