Zusammenfassung:A fuel cartridge is applicable to the fuel cell comprising an anode, a cathode, a polymer electrolyte membrane and a fuel wicking structure for feeding liquid fuel to the anode. The fuel cartridge comprises a fuel container and a porous fuel transport wick. The porous fuel transport for transporting the liquid fuel to the fuel cell, is incorporated in the fuel container. The fuel cartridge is configured to feed the liquid fuel stored in the cartridge to the fuel cell through the porous fuel transport wick, with assist of the negative capillary attraction which occurs in the fuel wicking structure depending on fuel consumption at the anode.
