A study of GDC-based micro tubular SOFC

Abstract

In this work, we studied a NiO/GDC-GDC-LSCF micro-tubular SOFC system using saturated hydrogen at 450-550 degrees C. The systems were electrochemically and mechanically tested using a number of different methodologies, and were modeled using a 2D axial symmetric steady state non-isothermal computational model incorporating radiation heat transfer, flow and species transport.
