Abstract
To suppress increase of a pressure loss in a channel and blocking of the channel due to water adhering to a rectification mesh provided downstream of a butterfly valve. A fuel cell system includes: a butterfly valve provided on a pipe between a fuel cell and another component; and a rectification mesh provided on a downstream side of gas flowing in the pipe relative to the butterfly valve, a mesh that rectifies a flow of the gas being formed in the rectification mesh. The rectification mesh has, in its lower end part in a vertical direction, a first opening part in which the mesh is not formed.
