Abstract
A fuel cell having a receiver extending from a side surface of a stacked-cell body of a fuel cell and adapted to receive surplus electrolyte falling along the side surface, and a barrier disposed on the receiver and adapted to catch the electrolyte discharged from a reserve plate while partially restricting an opening which serves as the outlet of a reaction gas flow path. The electrolyte discharged from one single cell can positively be recovered and returned to the same single cell without causing any substantial pressure loss.
