Abstract
Separators are formed to have a rectangular outline. A coolant passage is formed in a portion of each separator, which is located around a fuel gas passage or an oxidant gas passage formed in a surface of each separator, and which is substantially parallel to a long side of each separator, so that a coolant flows in a direction perpendicular to the surfaces of each separator.
