    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing a product gas which is rich in hydrogen, comprising a reformer part which comprises an inlet for a fuel/oxidation agent mixture, an inlet for a water/carrier gas mixture, a catalytic surface and a first heat exchanger. Said device also comprises a combustion part which comprises an inlet for an anode residual gas from a fuel cell, an inlet for an oxidation agent, a catalytic surface and a second and a third heat exchanger. The reformer part and the combustion part are connected via lines which are used to guide a water vapour/catrier gas mixture and for directing the reformat. According to the inventive method for producing a product gas which is rich in hydrogen, a first mixing chamber guides a water vapour/carrier gas mixture via a line and a fuel/oxidation agent mixture via a nozzle. The fuelwater vapour/oxidation agent/carrier gas mixture is catalytically converted into a product gas which is rich in hydrogen in exothermic and endothermic reactions. The anode residual gas from the fuel cell is catalytically converted in exothermic reactions into waste gas having few harmful substances. The heat required for evaporating water into water vapour in the water vapour/carrier gas mixture is partially produced by cooling the product gas which is rich in hydrogen and partially by cooling the waste gas of the combustion which contains few harmful substances.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for injecting and mixing a liquid hydrocarbon fuel to provide a uniform, homogenous fuel vapor mixture for introduction into a fuel reformer for use with a fuel cell are disclosed. Preferably, the system comprises a fuel injector that generates and aspirate a liquid fuel in the presence of an atomizing gas stream; a diverging-converging mixing chamber, into which the atomized fuel and a secondary fluid stream are introduced, to enhance the mixing of the fuel and the added heated gas or steam; and a mixer/swirler, which can be centrally located in the mixing chamber between the upper and lower chambers, to stabilize the fuel vapor mixture further for greater uniformity and homogeneity. More preferably, grooves and/or brazed wires can be provided on the surfaces of the mixing chamber and/or mixer/swirler to channel any accumulated fuel so as to provide sufficient time to evaporate the accumulated fuel.
