Summary: | The present invention relates to a fuel cell system and, more particularly, an auto-thermal reformer fuel cell system to produce electricity.
A precooler for use in a fuel cell system between a thermal reformer and a shift converter includes an atomizing water inlet in combination with a swirling inducing reformed gas inlet which act to increase the resistance time of the reformed gas in the precooler so as to effectively cool same. |
