CA 2311136

A cover and startup gas supply system for a solid oxide fuel cell power generator is disclosed. Hydrocarbon fuel, such as natural gas or diesel fuel, and oxygen-containing gas are supplied to a burner. Combustion gas exiting the burner is cooled prior to delivery to the solid oxide fuel cell. The system mixes the combusted hydrocarbon fuel constituents with hydrogen which is preferably stored in solid form to obtain a non-explosive gas mixture. The system may be used to provide both non-explosive cover gas and hydrogen-rich startup gas to the fuel cell.

L' invention porte sur un système d'alimentation en gaz de couverture et de démarrage destiné à un générateur de puissance à pile à combustible oxyde solide. Dans cette invention, un combustible hydrocarboné, tel que du gaz naturel ou du gazole, et du gaz contenant de l'oxygène sont envoyés dans une chambre de combustion. Les gaz de combustion sont refroidis à leur sortie de la chambre de combustion avant d'être distribués à la pile à combustible oxyde solide. Le système mélange les constituants du combustible hydrocarboné ayant brûlé avec de l'hydrogène qui est de préférence stocké sous forme solide pour constituer un mélange de gaz non explosif. Ce système peut être utilisé pour fournir à la pile à combustible un gaz de couverture et un gaz de démarrage riche en hydrogène qui, tous deux, ne risquent pas d'exploser.
