である。In the conventional fuel storage pond power generation system, as a means to control the differential pressure between the battery container and the air electrode, and the differential pressure between the air electrode and the fuel electrode, each differential pressure is detected and a 9111 pressure control valve is used. , all systems used to control the pressure control valve on the fuel electrode outlet side, but the air required for the chemical reaction of the fuel cell,
Comparing the flow rates of the material, the amount of air supplied is significantly larger, and the pressure regulating valve provided on the air electrode outlet side has a larger diameter than the pressure regulating valve on the cap material electrode outlet side. Therefore, when comparing the dead time of the valves, the pressure regulating valve on the nine electrode outlet side has a longer time. In addition, when comparing the proportionality constant, which is the number of feet of the built-in controller that controls the air electrode outlet side pressure regulating valve and the fuel outlet side pressure regulating valve, it is found that The pole side pressure v14 valve meter is smaller. This is to gently control the differential pressure between the battery container and the impregnated electrode during load following operation or when there is a negative change in vJ.

々に上昇する。, when performing load following operation, if the supply flow rate to the 9th electrode and the fuel electrode increases rapidly, the differential pressure between the battery container and the 9th electrode, and the differential pressure between the air electrode and the fuel electrode will be reduced within a foot of the animal. In order to adjust the pressure, both the nitrogen electrode outlet pressure control valve and the fuel electrode outlet pressure control valve operate in the opening direction. However, the valve operation of the 9 air pole output pressure vI 4-section valve is dead time, response)! ! Since the 7'L time is relatively long, the pressure rises constantly compared to the fuel electrode outlet pressure control valve.

When the pressure at the outlet of the reformer combustion section increases, the air electrode and fuel electrode population pressures also rise equivalently, and the pressure is kept constant. Then, it operates in the direction of increasing the rate of increase, and finally, the differential pressure is adjusted so that Z<Z, the impregnated electrode -

より、常に、圧力全一定に保持するようになっている。Also, the air 2 is at a pressure lIi! It is supplied to nine gas electrodes 9 via a seed heater and a heat exchanger 7b. The battery body 12 has an electrolyte 10 with a thin matritas structure between the inner electrodes of the air electrode 9 and the fuel electrode 11, and direct current flows from between the two electrodes 9 and 10 due to the chemical reaction between the air and the fuel residue. The inside of the battery container 8 which outputs power and protects these battery bodies 12 is always supplied with an inert gas 3 such as a hydrogen gas. It is strongly desired that such a fuel battery power generation system be able to cope with load fluctuations, have good responsiveness, and be able to increase the output power. In order to change the DC power output taken out from both ends of the fuel electrode 11 and the air electrode 9, it is necessary to change the reaction amount of the fuel scum 13 and the air 2. It is necessary to follow load fluctuations and change quickly. In this case, the amount of reaction is different between the fuel gas 13 and the air 2, so if the supply amount 7i of the fuel scum 13 and air 2 is changed according to the required amount, the difference between the Ikeya device 8 and the thrust pole 9 will be , the pressure difference between the nitrogen gas 9 and the fuel electrode 11 may fluctuate, and the fuel cell body 12 may be damaged. In addition, the electrolyte 10, which is the most important component of the battery body 12, is made of very thin polyester, and when the pressure difference between the air electrode 11 and the air electrode 9 increases,
If the electrolyte 10 ruptures due to the pressure difference and the fuel gas 13 and air 2 mix directly within the battery body 12, there is a risk of explosion. As a countermeasure for these problems, the conventional fuel cell control system has a differential pressure detector 14 that detects the entire differential pressure between the battery container 8 and the air electrode 9, and a A built-in controller 15 for calculation takes in the output signal and controls the pressure control valve 16 on the outlet side of the air electrode 9
, a differential pressure detector 17 that detects the differential pressure between the fuel electrode 11 and the air electrode 9, and a built-in calculation type that takes in the output signal of this differential pressure detector 17 and controls the pressure regulating valve 19 on the outlet side of the fuel electrode 11. It is composed of a regulator 18 and the like, and the battery container 8 is always supplied with an inert gas 3 such as nitrogen gas, and the pressure is always maintained at a constant level by a pressure regulating valve 20.

という欠点があった。However, when the supply amount of the cell inlet fuel gas 13.9 air 2 suddenly increases as during load following operation, the pressure control valve 16 has a relatively long dead time and response delay time.
The pressure increases on the side of the nine gas electrodes 9 that are being trolled. Furthermore, since the pressure at the outlet side of the combustion section of the raw material reformer gradually increases, the inlet pressures to the air electrode 9 and fuel electrode 11 also increase with equal restrictions. In this state, the differential pressure between the battery container 8 and the air electrode 9 increases in the negative direction due to the increased response delay of the pressure pi node 6, resulting in a phenomenon in which the pressure at the air electrode 9 becomes higher than the battery container pressure. The problem is that the pressure difference between the air electrode 9 and the fuel electrode 11 fluctuates greatly (hunting operation in which the pressure regulating valve 19 that controls the pressure difference between the air electrode 9 and the fuel electrode 11 repeatedly opens and closes).

The pressure of the auxiliary tank (or arrangement r) that is installed inside or outside the battery container and supplies inert gas such as bonito gas is controlled, and the auxiliary tank (or piping)
The differential pressure between the nitrogen electrode and the air electrode is controlled by the pressure regulating valve on the negative side of the nitrogen electrode and the metal fuel electrode. Therefore, even if the outlet pressure of the raw material reformer combustion section fluctuates during load following operation or negative angle fluctuations, the condition of the air electrode outlet side pressure control valve can always be kept within the stable operating range. 1. Differential pressure between the pond container and the air electrode, and between the air electrode and the fuel electrode? Always have one pair of v4i! i5.

A differential pressure transmitter that detects the differential pressure between the silent fuel electrodes and transmits the signal, and a differential pressure transmitter that takes in all the output signals and is installed on the outlet side of the fuel electrode, and transmits the pressure to the combustion section outlet side of the raw material reformer. A fuel battery control device comprising: a pressure transmitter that detects and transmits a signal; and an auxiliary tank that can adjust the pressure in accordance with the pressure and has a relatively smaller capacity than the battery container. 2. In claim 1, the auxiliary tank is fully supplied with an inert gas such as a desired gas, and the auxiliary tank and the 1! A differential pressure detector is provided to detect the entire differential pressure between the L pond nitrogen electrode, and the output signal of the differential pressure detector is taken in as an input signal of the controller built into the computer, and the auxiliary tank, the 'W
A pressure control valve is provided at each outlet side of the L pond container, and further a computing device for detecting the combustion section outlet pressure of the raw material reformer and controlling the pressure of the auxiliary tank accordingly;
Also, a fuel battery control device characterized in that the pressure in the battery container follows the pressure in the auxiliary tank.
