Abstract:
1. A burner reformer for a fuel cell power generating systems, comprising a gas inlet, said gas inlet guiding a gas to enter; a residual fuel inlet, said residual fuel inlet being connected with said gas inlet, said residual fuel inlet guiding an unreacted residual hydrogen-rich gas to enter to obtain a fuel, said fuel being obtained by mixing said unreacted residual hydrogen-rich gas and said gas from said gas inlet; an oxidant inlet, said oxidant inlet guiding an oxidant to enter to burn gas; a spraying device, said spraying device being positioned in a combustion chamber, said spraying device being connected with said gas inlet and said residual fuel inlet, said spraying device comprising a fuel tube; a plurality of branch tubes; and a spraying hole located on each one of said branch tubes, wherein said spraying device guides said fuel to enter from said fuel tube to be directly sprayed by said spraying hole located on each one of said branch tubes; a porous media burner, said porous media burner being positioned on said spraying device in said combustion chamber to combust said fuel sprayed by said spraying device and said oxidant obtained from said oxidant inlet; a fuel inlet, said fuel inlet guiding a to-be-reformed fuel to enter; a pre-heater, said pre-heater surrounding said combustion chamber to absorb heat of a high-temperature tail-gas to pre-heat fuel; a distributing ring, said distributing ring surrounding said combustion chamber at outside, said distributing ring being located on said pre-heater, said distributing ring having a plurality of fuel distributing holes to uniformly spray said pre-heated fuel by said fuel distributing holes; a spreading plate, said spreading plate surrounding said combustion chamber, said spreading plate being located on said distributing ring, said spreading plate having a plurality of spreading holes to uniformly spread said sprayed fuel by said spreading holes; a plurality of fuel reformers, said fuel reformers surrounding said combustion chamber, said fuel reformers being located on said spreading plate, said fuel reformers being loaded on said loading plate to process reformation to obtain hydrogen-rich gas; an igniter, said igniter being located on said porous media burner to obtain energy to activate said burner reformer to process burning in said porous media burner; a first tail-gas outlet, said first tail-gas outlet being connected at a terminal of said combustion chamber to output a high-temperature tail-gas obtained after combustion; a plurality of tail-gas deflectors, said tail-gas deflectors surrounding said first tail-gas outlet and said combustion chamber to guide said high-temperature tail-gas entered from said first tail-gas outlet to provide heat to process reformation with a catalyst in said fuel reformers; a guiding channel, said guiding channel penetrating through said loading plate to pass said high-temperature tail-gas from said loading plate to said spreading plate without contacting said distributing ring; a guiding blade, said guiding blade surrounding said combustion chamber, said guiding blade being located on an end surface of said distributing ring, said guiding blade being an area to process pre-heating to said high-temperature tail-gas entered from said guiding channel; a second tail-gas outlet, said second tail-gas outlet outputting said high-temperature tail-gas to be collected; a plurality of outlets of burner reformer, said outlets of burner reformer being located on said fuel reformers to output reformed hydrogen-rich gas; and a reformate gas outlet, said reformate gas outlet being located on said outlets of burner reformer to guide said hydrogen-rich gas to a cell stack.
