Abstract:
1. A device for supplying fuel to a burner in a fuel cell system, comprising: a reformer for producing a reformate gas which is then depleted of hydrogen, wherein the hydrogen depleted reformate gas is a first materials flow; at least one nozzle receiving the first materials flow and constructed to draw in a second materials flow, wherein the second materials flow is a materials flow of a starting material for reforming that comprises carbon and hydrogen, for mixture with the hydrogen depleted reformate gas to produce fuel for direct transfer into the burner; and an adjustment means for controlling a flow of at least one of the first and second materials flows through the nozzle, thereby allowing control of a mixing ratio between the first and the second materials flows.
