ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for supplying extra/booster steam and/or fuel vapor to the fuel processor of a fuel cell system during surges in power demanded from the fuel cell. Hot water and/or liquid fuel is/are stored under pressure until needed. When needed during power surges, the pressure is rapidly reduced on the hot liquid(s) causing it/them to flash vaporize and supplement the normal, steady state supply of steam/fuel-vapor to the fuel processor.
