Abstract: The main goal of this work is the transient analysis of hybrid systems based on solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). The work is divided into three parts: in the first, the fuel cell transient ...

Abstract: The Thermochemical Power Group (TPG) of the University of Genoa designed and installed a complete hybrid system emulator test rig equipped with a 100 kW recuperated micro gas turbine, a modular ...

Abstract: A new high temperature fuel cell-micro gas turbine physical emulator has been designed and installed in the framework of the European Integrated Project “FELICITAS” at the Thermochemical Power ...

Abstract: The University of Genoa (TPG) has designed and developed an innovative test rig for high temperature fuel cell hybrid system physical emulation. It is based on the coupling of a modified ...

Abstract: High-efficiency hybrid systems (HS) based on the coupling of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and gas turbines (GT) are analyzed in this paper through the use of two different approaches: ...

Abstract: The Thermochemical Power Group of the University of Genoa, Italy, has developed a new “Gas Turbine” laboratory to introduce undergraduate students to the Gas Turbines and Innovative Cycles course, ...

Abstract: The aim of this work is the experimental analysis of a primary-surface recuperator, operating in a 100 kW micro gas turbine, as in a standard recuperated cycle. These tests, performed in both ...

Abstract: This paper is focused on the performance of the 1 MW plant designed and developed by Rolls-Royce Fuel Cell Systems Limited. The system consists of a two stage turbogenerator coupled with ...

Abstract: In this paper the design point definition of a pressurised hybrid system based on the Rolls-Royce Integrated Planar-Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (IP-SOFCs) is presented and discussed. The hybrid system ...
