Description
において、前記流量検出手段の検出結果に基づいて前記ポンプから前記改質器への水の圧
送を判定した後に、前記通常運転制御に移行することを特徴とする。
CmHn+xO2 → aCO2+bCO+cH2 (1)
部分酸化改質反応POXは、発熱反応であるので起動性が高く、燃料電池システムFCSの起動当初において好適な改質反応である。ただし、部分酸化改質反応POXは、水素収率が理論上少なく、発熱反応を制御するのも難しいことから、燃料電池モジュールFCMへ熱供給が必要な起動当初においてのみ利用されるのが好ましい改質反応である。尚、部分酸化改質反応POXのみに着目すれば、空間速度を高く設定するので、例えば改質器RFを分割形成して部分酸化改質反応POX専用の改質器を設ける場合には、その専用の改質器を小型化することができる。
CmHn+xH2O → aCO2+bCO+cH2 (2)
水蒸気改質反応SRは、水素収率が最も高く、高効率な反応である。ただし、水蒸気改質反応SRは、吸熱反応であるので熱源が必要であり、燃料電池システムFCSの起動当初よりはある程度温度が上昇した段階において好適な改質反応である。尚、水蒸気改質反応SRのみに着目すれば、空間速度を低く設定するので、改質器RFが大型化する傾向にある。
CmHn+xO2+yH2O → aCO2+bCO+cH2 (3)
オートサーマル改質反応ATRは、水素収率が部分酸化改質反応POXと水蒸気改質反応SRとの中間であり、反応熱のバランスが取りやすく、部分酸化改質反応POXと水蒸気改質反応SRとを繋ぐ反応として好適な改質反応である。本実施形態の場合は、水を少なく供給して部分酸化改質反応POXにより近い第1オートサーマル改質反応ATR1を先に行い、温度が上昇した後に水を増やすように供給して水蒸気改質反応SRにより近い第2オートサーマル改質反応ATR2を後に行っている。

Claims (7)
- 固体電解質形の燃料電池セルを含む燃料電池システムであって、
前記燃料電池セルに供給する燃料ガスの水蒸気改質を行う改質器と、
前記改質器に水を供給するための水供給手段と、
前記水供給手段を制御する制御手段とを備え、
前記水供給手段は、
前記改質器に供給する水を貯水する貯水タンクと、
前記貯水タンクに貯水された水を前記改質器に圧送するポンプと、
前記ポンプから前記改質器に水を供給するための管路と、
前記ポンプによる前記改質器への水の供給量を検出する流量検出手段と、を有し、
前記制御手段は、
少なくとも前記燃料電池システム起動時において、前記ポンプを停止状態から圧送状態へと切り替えて水の圧送を開始する際に、前記ポンプの水送出流量を通常運転制御時よりも所定時間増やすことで、前記ポンプの水供給能力を通常運転制御時よりも所定時間高くする開始運転制御を行った後に、前記通常運転制御に移行することを特徴とする燃料電池システム。 - 前記燃料電池システム起動時において、前記改質器における改質反応を部分酸化改質反応から開始して、オートサーマル改質反応から水蒸気改質反応へと遷移させるものであって、
前記制御手段は、前記オートサーマル改質反応の開始時に前記開始運転制御を実行することを特徴とする請求項1に記載の燃料電池システム。 - 前記オートサーマル改質反応は、前記改質器に供給する水量が第1量である第1オートサーマル改質反応と、前記改質器の温度が所定温度以上となった場合に前記第1オートサーマル改質反応に続いて行われる反応であって前記改質器に供給する水量が前記第1量よりも多い第2量である第2オートサーマル改質反応とを含み、
前記制御手段は、前記第1オートサーマル改質反応の開始時に前記開始運転制御を実行することを特徴とする請求項2に記載の燃料電池システム。 - 前記制御手段は、前記開始運転制御を実行中において、前記流量検出手段の検出結果に基づいて前記ポンプから前記改質器への水の圧送を判定した後に、前記通常運転制御に移行することを特徴とする請求項3に記載の燃料電池システム。
- 前記制御手段は、前記ポンプから前記改質器への水の圧送を判定した後に、前記ポンプの水供給能力を抑制し、前記改質器へ供給する空気量を低下させ、前記通常運転制御へと移行することを特徴とする請求項4に記載の燃料電池システム。
- 前記開始運転制御は、前記ポンプの水供給能力を最大限のものとする制御であることを特徴とする請求項1に記載の燃料電池システム。
- 前記ポンプは、前記貯水タンクよりも上方であって、前記燃料電池を含む燃料電池モジュール側に近接して配置されていることを特徴とする請求項1に記載の燃料電池システム。
