Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stacks are extremely vulnerable to mechanical failures in any of their constituents, which ultimately lead to cell cracking. Like all devices, distinct failure sequences arise from different events or design particularities. Th ...
L’objectif du travail entrepris est de développer un outil permettant la simulation dynamique d’un syteème de pile à combustible à haute température (SOFC). Des modèles génériques ont été développés afin de pouvoir représenter les différents composants du ...
LENI activities in SOFC are focused on development of a new planar stack concept based on anode supported cells in collaboration with the company HTceramix SA. Modeling of repeat element, stack and systems is starting in parallel. This work presents a mode ...
The aim of this work was to operate the steam reforming of methanol and the total oxidation of methanol in a microstructured two-passage reactor. The steam reforming enables the production of hydrogen at relatively low temperatures (250 °C) with only a sma ...
This paper presents the modeling strategy developed for the design of a planar solid oxide fuel cell repeat element. Design goal are to reach good performance (power density) and reliability (ie. limit risk of failure and degradation). This challenging pro ...
This paper presents the optimal design and operation of a micro power generation process that consists of a reactor, a solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and two burners in a stack fed with ammonia and butane fuels. Hydrogen is produced from ammonia decompositio ...
The aim of this work is to develop a microstructured reactor based on filamentous catalysts for the Oxidative Steam-Reforming of Methanol (OSRM), to produce hydrogen as feed for a fuel cell, in an autothermal way. Hydrogen is produced by the methanol Steam ...
This paper presents a methodology for the optimal design and operation of man-portable power generation devices based on fuel cells. To illustrate the methodology, we focus on a simple process that consists of a fuel processing reactor, a solid-oxide fuel ...
Highly sinterable yttria-doped ceria powder (YO1.5)x (CeO2)1 − x (x = 0.1–0.33) was fabricated by an optimized coprecipitation route. Compacted bodies could be sintered to impermeability at 1200 °C and near full density at 1300 °C, among the lowest tempera ...
