FUEL CELL

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell in which reactant gas can be made to equally reach whole gas manifold, and can be supplied equally to all the cells. SOLUTION: The fuel cell includes: a plurality of fuel battery cells in which reactant gas flow passages are formed inside; support members in which through holes are formed that are deployed in the manifold 66 to support one end of the plurality of fuel cells and supply the reactant gas in the gas manifold to respective reactant gas flow passages; and inner gas supply tubes which are arranged in the gas manifold, and in which a plurality of ejection holes that eject the reactant gas are formed. The interior of the gas manifold is partitioned into a plurality of spaces by barrier ribs, and in respective individual spaces, ejection of the reactant gas from the ejection holes and supply of the reactant gas to the plurality of through holes are carried out, while the barrier ribs are arranged so that flows of the reactant gas passing through the barrier ribs and going into and coming out of the adjacent spaces are hindered.
