Abstract
A method and apparatus for managing thermal performance of a fuel cell system having a fuel cell assembly and a fuel storage container is disclosed. The fuel cell system 100 consists of one or more fuel cells 110, each having a major surface 140, and disposed next to each other in a side-by-side adjacent arrangement and a fuel storage container 120 having an exterior wall 150. The fuel cells 110 are positioned such that distance between the major surfaces 140 and the fuel storage container wall 150 along a direction normal to the major surfaces is substantially the same. In addition, one or more of the fuel cells are in thermal contact with the fuel storage container such that cell waste heat is transferred to the fuel storage container.
