Detailed Multi‐dimensional Modeling of Direct Internal Reforming Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Fuel flexibility is a significant advantage of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and can be attributed to their high operating temperature. Here we consider a direct internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell setup in which a separate fuel reformer is not required. We construct a multidimensional, detailed model of a planar solid oxide fuel cell, where mass transport in the fuel channel is modeled u...
متن کاملLa0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 perovskite cathode for Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: A comparative study
In this study the characteristics of two different kinds of La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 (LSCF) powders, one in-house synthesized powder by a co-precipitation method and another one purchased from Fuel Cell Materials Co. (FCM Co., USA), were compared. The co-precipitated powder was prepared by using ammonium carbonate as precipitant with a NH4+/NO3- molar ratio of 2 and calcination at 1000C for 1 h....
متن کاملStrategies for Lowering Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Operating Temperature
Lowering the operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) to the intermediate range (500–700 oC) has become one of the main SOFC research goals. High operating temperatures put numerous requirements on materials selection and on secondary units, limiting the commercial development of SOFCs. The present review first focuses on the main effects of reducing the operating temperature in ...
متن کاملNickel catalysts for internal reforming in molten carbonate fuel cells
Natural gas may be used instead of hydrogen as fuel for the molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) by steam reforming the natural gas inside the MCFC, using a nickel catalyst (internal reforming). The severe conditions inside the MCFC, however, require that the catalyst has a very high stability. In order to find suitable types of nickel catalysts and to obtain more knowledge about the deactivation ...
متن کاملEfficiency Analysis of Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cell at Direct Internal Reforming Conditions
A detailed model is presented for the analysis of temperature, species concentration, and current density profiles as well as the efficiency and power density of a planar solid oxide fuel cell at direct internal reforming condition. The model describes the interactions of mass transport, heat transport, heterogeneous chemistry, and electrochemistry. The heterogeneous chemistry model for the cat...
