Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An elongated fuel processor assembly is coupled to a fuel cell stack for producing a reformate for consumption by the fuel cell stack. The elongated fuel processor assembly includes an annular core having a thermal conduction mass for conducting heat, an annular reformer surrounding and supported by the annular core, and a vaporizer surrounding and supported by the annular core. Un ensemble processeur de combustible allongé est couplé à un empilement de piles à combustible pour produire un reformat pour la consommation par l'empilement de piles à combustible. L'ensemble processeur de combustible allongé comprend un noyau annulaire ayant une masse de conduction thermique pour conduire la chaleur, un reformeur annulaire entourant et supporté par le noyau annulaire, et un évaporateur entourant et supporté par le noyau annulaire.
