Abstract

The present invention relates to a separator with zigzag flow channels for a fuel cell, said separator comprising a pair of fluid inlet/outlet ports, and a plurality of flow channels for communicating with the fluid inlet/outlet ports. The pair of fluid inlet/outlet ports is symmetrically arranged, after being rotated by 180 degrees about the center of the plurality of flow channels. Each of the plurality of flow channels starts in a straight line from one of the pair of fluid inlet/outlet ports, extends into a zigzag shape in the perpendicular direction of the straight line, and is connected to the other fluid inlet/outlet port in a straight line again, thus making the pair of fluid inlet/outlet ports symmetrical to each other after being rotated by 180 degrees about the center of the plurality of flow channels.
