It is discharged. Conventionally, in order to discharge the gas discharged from a liquid fuel cell, a discharge port was simply provided and the gas was discharged directly as it was (see, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-245868).

By the way, since the boiling point of methanol is just around this operating temperature, what is discharged from the fuel chamber of the methanol fuel cell is an unreacted aqueous methanol solution, carbon dioxide gas, and methanol vapor.

As shown in FIG. 2, the cooling plate 4 has a number of through holes formed inside the gas-liquid separator 1, and also has brim-like cooling fins extending outside the gas-liquid separator 1. The cooling plate 4 is formed by stacking cooling plates 4 and frame-shaped spacers 5 alternately on the separator main body to form a cooling section.

めのポンプの循環供給力によっている。Next, FIG. 3 shows a circuit diagram of a liquid fuel system in which the gas-liquid separator of the present invention is combined with a cell stack that is a liquid fuel cell. Based on the circuit diagram of FIG. 3 and FIGS. 1 and 2, the operation of the gas-liquid separator 1 of the present invention will be explained in relation to the entire fuel cell system. Methanol fuel from the fuel tank is supplied to the fuel chamber of the cell stack by driving the pump. On the other hand, air drawn from the atmosphere by a blower is supplied to the air chamber of the cell stack. In the fuel chamber, the reaction of formula (1) occurs, and carbon dioxide gas generated by this reaction and unreacted methanol are discharged. However, since the operating temperature of the cell stack is near the boiling point of methanol, usually 50 to 60°C, some unreacted methanol in the discharged fluid becomes methanol vapor. Therefore, what is discharged from the fuel chamber becomes a mixed phase flow of liquid phase and gas phase. This multiphase flow is supplied to the recovered fuel supply port 3 at the bottom of the gas-liquid separator 1. The power for supplying this recovered fuel to the gas-liquid separator is based on the circulation supply power of the pump for supplying fuel from the gas-liquid separator 1 to the cell stack.

部に放出される。Methanol fuel discharged and recovered from the fuel chamber is stored in the gas-liquid separator 1, and a portion of the fuel is discharged from the fuel discharge port 2 and supplied from a separately provided fuel tank. It is combined with fuel and supplied again to the fuel chamber of the cell stack by a pump. In addition, in the recovered fuel made of the multiphase flow supplied to the gas-liquid separator 1, the carbon dioxide gas and methanol vapor contained therein rise above the liquid surface and pass through the small holes 8 of the cooling plate 4. These gases are cooled and the methanol vapor condenses into droplets that fall and coalesce onto the fuel liquid stored below. Therefore, methanol vapor does not reach the water-repellent gas-liquid separation filter 6 located at the top of the gas-liquid separator 1. Furthermore, the carbon dioxide reaches this water-repellent gas-liquid separation filter 6, passes through this membrane, and is released to the outside. Furthermore, the heat taken from the methanol vapor is released to the outside from the radiation fins.

The reaction at the air electrode consumes oxygen in the air, and the reaction produces water, so air and water are discharged from the air chamber. The discharged air and water are then separated into water and air by a condenser, the air is discharged into the atmosphere, and the water is combined with the fuel and supplied to the fuel chamber of the fuel tank by a pump.

For example, in the above embodiment, methanol was used as an example of liquid fuel, but liquid fuel is not limited to methanol, and any fuel that releases gas when consumed can be applied. For example, hydrazine fuel can also be used. Available for use.

る。As described in detail above, according to the present invention, there is provided a gas-liquid separator comprising a separator main body whose lower part is a storage tank for recovered fuel and a cooling part whose upper part communicates with the separator main body. The separator main body has a recovered fuel receiving port for receiving fuel recovered from the fuel cell and a fuel discharge port for discharging the fuel, and the cooling section includes:
Flat cooling plates 4 for condensing fuel vapor and recovering it as fuel are arranged in layers at intervals, and the cooling plates extend to the outside of the gas-liquid separator and have collar-shaped cooling fins. The inside of the cooling section of the cooling plate has small holes through which carbon dioxide passes, and the top of the cooling section is a gas-liquid separator that closes the cooling section with a water-repellent gas-liquid separation filter. Therefore, fuel vapor can be prevented from diffusing outside the gas-liquid separator, and only carbon dioxide gas can be released outside.
