FUEL CELL GENERATOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell generator which, in a case where the reforming gas generated by a reformer is used for both power generation by a fuel cell body and hydrogen purification in a hydrogen purifying device, can prevent shortage of reforming gas in the other device even when a consumption amount of reforming gas in one device increases. SOLUTION: The fuel cell generator 10 includes: the reformer 1 for generating the reforming gas by steam reforming reaction of raw fuel mixed with steam and supplied; the fuel cell body 2 for generating power by electrochemical reaction between the reforming gas generated by the reformer 1 and air; a hydrogen purifying device 6 for purifying the reforming gas generated by the reformer 1 into highly-pure hydrogen; and a control device 7 for controlling a raw fuel flow rate supplied to the reformer 1 based on a sum value of a reforming gas flow rate supplied to the fuel cell body 2 and a reforming gas flow rate supplied to the hydrogen purifying device 6.
