Abstract
A fuel cell system sets the larger one of a stack request compressor supply flow rate calculated based on a request of a fuel cell stack and a system request compressor supply flow rate calculated based on a request by the fuel cell system as a target compressor supply flow rate and controls a compressor according to the target compressor supply flow rate. The fuel cell system also controls a bypass valve based on a stack supply flow rate and a target stack supply flow rate to be supplied to the fuel cell stack. The fuel cell system fixes the bypass valve or limits the drive of the bypass valve when the system request compressor supply flow rate is set as the target compressor supply flow rate and the stack supply flow rate becomes smaller than the target stack supply flow rate.
