(JP3074057-A)      Rectangular fuel cell stack comprises anode (26), cathode (27) and electrolyte (20) elements with separators defining anode and cathodee chambers for receiving fuel and oxidant gases, the electrolyte (20) and separator plates (40) n extending to the edge of the stack and being sealed via a peripheral separator plate/ electrolyte wet seal structure (23) (23).    The separator plates and electroltes also have a series of aligned holes (24, 25) surrounded by manifold wet seal structures (45, 46) with conduits extending through them to provide fuel gas to the anode chambers and oxidant gas to the cathode chambers.    USE/ADVANTAGE -   Esp. with high temp. molten carbonate fuel cells. Arrangement provides a sealed, fully internal manifolding, leading to long term durability and stability of cell operation. @(23pp Dwg.No.1/10)@    (US5045413-A)      Fully internally manifolded fuel cell stack is made up of cell units of separator plates (40), cathode (27), cathode current collector (28), electrolytes (20), anode (26), and anode current collector (29). Separator plates and electrolytes extend to the edge of the cell and form wet seals on the separator plates in wet seal areas (43). Separator plates and electrolyte tiles (20) are penetrated by manifold holes in their corner areas.    Fuel manifold wet seal areas (45) and oxidant manifold wet seal areas (46) extend upwards and downwards from the separator plate plane. Surfaces of anode and cathode are flush with peripheral wet seals (43) to provide wet seal contact between separator plate and electrolyte.    USE/ADVANTAGE -   Efficient sealing for full internal manifolding, partic. in molten carbonate fuel cell stacks. @(11pp)@    (JP2573721-B2)      Rectangular fuel cell stack comprises anode (26), cathode (27) and electrolyte (20) elements with separators defining anode and cathode chambers for receiving fuel and oxidant gases, the electrolyte (20) and separator plates (40) n extending to the edge of the stack and being sealed via a peripheral separator plate/ electrolyte wet seal structure (23) (23).
