Title:
FUEL CELL SYSTEM FOR MOBILE BODY AND ITS CONTROL METHOD
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3702752
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell system for a mobile body which can perform most efficient idling concerning fuel efficiency and re-acceleration when an accelerator is closed.
SOLUTION: The fuel cell system for a mobile body is composed of a reforming reactor 120 which reforms a fuel and generates hydrogen content gas, a carbon monoxide removal reactor 130 with which the carbon monoxide contained in the reforming gas generated with the reforming reactor is removed, the fuel cell 200 which generates electricity using the reforming gas and the oxygen content gas which passes the carbon monoxide removal reactor, and a compressor 400 which supplies the oxygen content gas to the carbon mono- oxide removal reactor and the fuel cell. When the mobile body is in a state of running and the accelerator is closed, the fuel, the water, and the oxygen content gas, or the fuel and the oxygen content gas are supplied to the reforming reactor so that the minimum hydrogen required in order to maintain the temperature of the reforming reactor may be generated, and, the minimum oxygen content gas needed to maintain the temperature of the carbon monoxide removal reactor is supplied to the carbon monoxide removal reactor.
