Zusammenfassung:To reduce the risk of the design pressure of a fuel gas system being exceeded even when an ambient temperature rises while a fuel cell stack or a fuel cell module is in an operation stopping state and the pressure in the fuel gas system rises.SOLUTION: A fuel cell system includes: a fuel cell module that has a fuel cell stack; a fuel gas system that supplies fuel gas to the fuel cell stack; an upstream block valve and a downstream block valve that open and close the fuel gas system; a vent system that is provided by being branched from the fuel gas system between the upstream block valve and the downstream block valve; and a bleed valve that opens and closes the vent system. When executing the operational stop of the fuel cell stack, pressure reduction control is performed in which the upstream block valve is closed and then the bleed valve is opened, and after a predetermined time has elapsed, the downstream block valve is closed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】燃料電池スタックまたは燃料電池モジュールの作動停止状態で周囲温度が上昇し、燃料ガス系統内の圧力が上昇しても、燃料ガス系統の設計圧力を超えるおそれを低減する。【解決手段】燃料電池システムは、燃料電池スタックを有する燃料電池モジュールと、燃料電池スタックに燃料ガスを供給する燃料ガス系統と、燃料ガス系統を開閉する上流側ブロック弁および下流側ブロック弁と、上流側ブロック弁と下流側ブロック弁との間で燃料ガス系統から分岐して設けられるベント系統と、ベント系統を開閉するブリード弁と、を備える。燃料電池スタックの作動停止を実行するときに、上流側ブロック弁を閉じた後にブリード弁を開き、さらに所定時間経過後に、下流側ブロック弁を閉じる減圧制御が実施される。【選択図】図3
