It is possible to achieve the effects described in . Capacity can be easily increased by using conventional technology, thermal expansion can be kept low, uniform gas distribution can be obtained, transport height can be reduced, and capacity of one stack can be increased by assembling on site. Since it can be made larger, it is possible to reduce the installation space, and because it is divided into sections, each can have its own independent earthquake-resistant structure, which improves its earthquake-resistant strength. In other words, by doing this, the problems that had previously occurred, such as the stacking height increasing as the stack capacity increases, and problems such as earthquake resistance, equal gas distribution and transportation, can be solved, and the fuel cell It becomes easy to increase the capacity of
