Draining device for use with fuel cell system

A fuel cell system comprising:

• a fuel cell assembly for performing an electrochemical reaction to produce water and heat;
• and
• a draining device for discharging said water, and comprising a recovery tank, a water-absorbing article and a blower, wherein said recovery tank is in communication with said fuel cell assembly and comprises a plurality of openings and a receptacle for accommodating said water, said water-absorbing article is disposed within said receptacle of said recovery tank for absorbing and dispersing said water, and said blower is in communication with said recovery tank for introducing ambient air into said recovery tank,
• wherein said water is vaporized into steam by the heat produced from said electrochemical reaction of said fuel cell system, and said ambient air introduced by said blower forces said steam to discharge to the surroundings via said openings of said recovery tank.

A fuel cell system comprising:

• a fuel cell assembly for performing an electrochemical reaction to produce water and heat;
• a heat sink coupled to said fuel cell assembly for dissipating said heat from said fuel cell assembly and vaporizing said water into steam by said heat;
• and
• a draining device for discharging said water, and comprising a recovery tank, a water-absorbing article and a blower, wherein said recovery tank is in communication with said fuel cell assembly and comprises a plurality of openings and a receptacle for accommodating said water, said water-absorbing article is disposed within said receptacle of said recovery tank for absorbing and dispersing said water, and said blower is in communication with said recovery tank for introducing ambient air into said recovery tank,
• wherein said water is vaporized into steam by the heat produced from said electrochemical reaction of said fuel cell system, and said ambient air introduced by said blower forces said steam to discharge to the surroundings via said openings of said recovery tank.
