Abstract
A separator for a fuel cell includes a channel having a passage that is a flow path of a reaction gas, a manifold part formed at a peripheral of the channel and communicating with the passage such that the reaction gas is introduced into and discharged from the channel, and a connector connecting the channel and the manifold part such that the reaction gas flows between the channel and the manifold part. The manifold part includes an inlet manifold through which the reaction gas is introduced into the channel and formed at a lower portion of the channel, and an outlet manifold configured to discharge the reaction gas from the channel to an outside of the fuel cell and formed at an upper portion of the channel.
