Abstract
1309517 Fuel cells BROWN BOVERI & CO Ltd 19 April 1971 [24 Feb 1970] 22306/71 Heading H1B A fuel cell comprises a heat exchanger 2 for exchanging heat between the outgoing exhaust gas and incoming air and fuel, at least one fuel cell module 4, a nozzle 3 for introducing fuel to the module, the nozzle being so arranged that during use of the fuel cell exhaust gas flows past the nozzle 3 so that some of the exhaust gas is drawn into the module, and a catalyser 10 for receiving the exhaust gas and air leaving the module so as to burn the remaining fuel therein. Fuel, e.g. propane is fed through pipe 1 to heat exchanger 2 and nozzle 3 to a battery of solid ceramic electrolyte fuel cell modules 4. The fuel is partly consumed therein and exhaust gas flows out of the modules through pipe 5. The exhaust gas is directed past the nozzle 3 where some of it is returned to the modules on the injector principle to prevent soot forming in the modules. The remainder of the exhaust gas flows out of pipe 6 to space 7. Air is conducted to the modules from pipe 8, and heat exchanger 2. Air not consumed in modules 4 enters space 7 through outlet 9. The unconsumed air and exhaust gas mixture flows through a porous catalyser pipe 10 of an after combustion catalyser to space 11, the remaining fuel being burnt in the catalyser. The heat produced helps to maintain the working temperature of 800 C. of the fuel cell. Exhaust gas from the catalyser 10 flows through heat exchanger 2 to the atmosphere via pipe 12. A resistance heater 22 is used to raise the temperature of the catalyser on starting, it being switched off by a regulator 23 at a predetermined value. In Fig. 2 (not shown) a fuel cell having a carbonate melt electrolyte is used. The fuel is passed from the heat exchanger to a converter where it is transformed into hydrogen and other gases before being passed to the fuel cell modules. The oxygen is supplied to the heat exchanger via a nozzle past which exhaust gases flow. Thus some of the exhaust gases are returned to the fuel cell modules.
