ABSTRACT:
The fuel processor system of the invention generates hydrogen from a hydrocarbon compound or from mixtures of hydrocarbon compounds for generating electric energy and heat by way of a combustion path, along which the generated hydrogen is passed for combustion. Included in the combustion path is at least one fuel cell for generating electric energy. The system further includes a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger, which, on the one hand, are series included in the combustion path downstream of the fuel cell. The first heat exchanger exchanges heat between the combustion path and a first heating circuit which includes the fuel cell. The second heat exchanger exchanges heat between the combustion path and a second heating circuit which includes the fuel processor. The generated hydrogen undergoes combustion where the fuel cell assists in generating electric energy and, optionally, the fuel processor assists in generating heat.
