Abstract: A power generation system with flat fuel cells of solid electrolyte construction permits the building up of a large capacity system. There are a train of pile units of flat fuel cells of solid electrolyte disposed in a horizontally extending fuel gas duct. The gas fuel duct supplies to the train of pile units of flat fuel cells fuel gas. Each of said pile units of flat fuel cells has a horizontal flat flow path for the fuel gas disposed above each fuel-side porous electrode sheet of the fuel cell opening freely at two path ends on the opposing side faces of the pile unit. There is a horizontal flat flow path for the oxidant gas disposed beneath each oxygen-side porous electrode sheet separated from the fuel gas flow paths and each connected at two path ends to either a supply line or to an exhaust line for the oxidant gas.

Abstract: A boiler having a furnace, a tunnel section and a rear gas duct is improved by the fact that a partition wall at right angles to side walls of the rear gas duct is disposed in the rear gas duct to divide it into two passages. A low-pressure reheater is disposed in the divided passage nearest to the tunnel section and has a narrow width. Two partition walls are disposed in the other divided passage parallel to the side walls of the rear gas duct to further divide the passage into three passages. Superheaters are disposed in the further divided passages close to the side walls and a high-pressure reheater is disposed in the central further divided passage. In another embodiment, the locations of the superheater and the high-pressure reheater are reversed.

Abstract: A steam boiler which includes a rear flue containing superheaters, reheaters, economizers and the like, a plurality of gas passages, and one or more dampers for regulating the flow of gases passing through the plurality of gas passages. In this arrangement, a gas mixer is provided to evenly mix the gases at the outlets of the gas passages.

Abstract: An exhaust gas boiler including a plurality of superheaters and reheaters disposed separately in a side-by-side relationship with each other in the upstream of exhaust gas flow and in a plane across the complete of said exhaust gas boiler, which comprises in combination a plurality of superheater means and reheater means separated into primary and secondary groups respectively in such a manner that the secondary superheater means and secondary reheater means are disposed side by side with each other, the primary reheater means being in the downstream of the secondary superheater means and the primary superheater means in the downstream of the secondary reheater means, the primary superheater means and the secondary superheater means being connected with each other, the primary reheater means and the secondary reheater means being connected with each other, respectively, and that there are provided a plurality of pass partition means between the superheater means and the reheater means.
