Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a residual gas burner ( 13 ) for a fuel cell system ( 1 ) having to educt gas feeds ( 11, 12 ) for feeding an educt gas each to a combustion chamber ( 14 ) of the residual gas burner ( 13 ). An improved operation of the residual gas burner ( 13 ) is obtained when the educt gas feeds ( 11, 12 ) each comprise outlet openings ( 22, 27 ), wherein the outlet openings ( 22, 27 ) face the combustion chamber ( 14 ) and the outlet openings ( 22, 27 ) of one of the educt gas feeds ( 11, 12 ) face a first bottom surface ( 29 ) of the other educt gas feed ( 11, 12 ). In addition, the invention relates to a fuel cell system ( 1 ) having such a residual gas burner ( 13 ).
