Abstract: Planar SOFC stack technology based on a unique concept (SOFConnex™) uses structured gas distribution layers between unprofiled metal sheet interconnects and thin Ni-YSZ anode supported electrolyte ...

Abstract: Hydrogen is often considered to be the ultimate energy source for vehicles. However, if hydrogen is to fuel practical vehicles, then the development of fuel cell and hydrogen fueled engine ...

Abstract: In the last decades, due to emission reduction policies, research focused on alternative powertrains among which electric vehicles powered by fuel cells are becoming an attractive solution. The ...

Abstract: We developed evaluation technologies for microtubular solid oxide fuel cells under pressurized conditions. The pressurized cell evaluation system for the single cell was produced. The chamber ...

Abstract: Molten carbonate fuel cells are well suited for stationary power production and heat supply. In order to enhance service lifetime, hot spots, respectively, high temperature gradients inside the ...

Abstract: This paper, which is part of the present special issue, was published in the February 2008 issue of the Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology, Vol. 5, No. 1.

Abstract: Biomass production by micro-algae is by a factor of 10 more efficient than by plants, by which an economic process of solar energy harvesting can be established. Owing to the very low dry ...

Abstract: There was an error in Fig. 2. The correct version appears below.

Abstract: Micro-tubular solid oxide fuel cells (MT-SOFCs) are a much smaller version of larger tubular SOFCs. They are operational within seconds and allow a higher power density per volume than the ...

Abstract: This study investigates the performance and operating characteristics of 5kW-class solid oxide fuel cell and gas turbine (SOFC/GT) hybrid systems for two different configurations, namely single- ...
