Original Abstract Submitted
In an embodiment, a unitized unit cell for a fuel cell stack includes an insert including a membrane-electrode assembly in which a first electrode layer is formed on a first surface and a second electrode layer is formed on a second surface, and a pair of gas diffusion layers are disposed on both surfaces. The cell can further include a sheet frame formed through bonding of plural sheets, configured to surround a border of the insert, bonded at a border of the insert and an interface thereof, and having a discharge flow field formed therein along a length direction proximate an edge in a width direction to discharge generated water generated from the insert, and a pair of separation plates having flow fields formed on both surfaces of the sheet frame and configured to supply a reaction gas and to discharge the generated water generated by a reaction.
