Abstract:
A fuel cell module that can suppress deterioration of sealability caused by liquid (water) that has collected in a system is provided. In the fuel cell module, a port portion of a gas-liquid separator is provided with a discharge groove in a region of from the outer periphery toward the inner periphery of the port portion, and the bottom portion of the discharge groove is inclined so as to become lower toward the inner side. Liquid (water) that is stuck between the port portion and a housing portion is discharged, due to its own weight or the like, to the inside of the port portion (to the side of the gas-liquid separator) through the discharge groove.
