Abstract

The present invention relates to a fuel cell. More particularly, the present invention relates to a gaseous fuel supply device formed into an integrated single unit to supply gaseous fuel including air and gas to each unit of a fuel cell system. The present invention also relates to the fuel cell system comprising the gaseous fuel supply device. To this end, the gaseous fuel supply device of the present invention comprises: a blower for supplying a gaseous fuel; a buffer tank located in the rear end of the blower to prevent pulsation of the gaseous fuel; a flow distribution unit located in the rear end of the buffer tank to distribute the gaseous fuel being discharged to multiple flow channels; a proportional control valve unit including multiple proportional control valves arranged in the respective flow channels of the flow distribution unit so as to regulate the degree of opening of the flow channels; pressure sensor units arranged in the rear of the buffer tank and the proportional control valve unit, respectively, so as to sense the pressure of the gaseous fuel flowing from the buffer tank and the pressures of multiple gaseous fuels discharged after passing through at least one flow channel from the rear end of the proportional control valve unit; and a correction control unit for correcting the degree of opening of the multiple proportional control valves to a preset degree of opening based on the pressure information from the pressure sensor unit.
