Performance of Single-Chamber Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Abstract
Single-chamber solid oxide fuel cells (SC-SOFCs) immerse the entire cell in a mixture of fuel and oxidizer gases within a single chamber, which eliminates the need for high temperature sealant, simplifies construction, and increases reliability over traditional double-chamber cells. However, there are challenges, such as low fuel utilization and electrode catalytic selectivity, that need to be overcome. This brief review paper looks at recent improvements in materials, processing, and operation of SC-SOFCs, which are rapidly approaching the performances of the double-chamber fuel cells and may become attractive for specific fuel cell applications. © 2007 Springer.
