Abstract
A internal reforming type molten carbonate fuel cell is provided in which the process or flow direction of the reforming reaction of a raw fuel gas in the reforming reaction section is countercurrent to the flow direction of the oxidant gas in the cell reaction section. Therefore, a temperature difference in the fuel cell can be suppressed.
