Abstract
A controller of a fuel cell system, when the fuel cell system is started up and thrown into warming-up operation, sets a rotating speed of the circulation pump to a reference rotating speed, subsequently repeatedly performs: (a) a process of acquiring the first temperature and the second temperature; and (b) a process of controlling the circulation pump by setting the rotating speed of the circulation pump in order that with the first temperature is within a predetermined temperature range, the rotating speed is made generally higher than the reference rotating speed with increasing temperature difference between the first temperature and the second temperature, and when a condition for rotating the circulation pump at the reference rotating speed is satisfied, the controller sets the rotating speed of the circulation pump to the reference rotating speed.
