FUEL CELLS – SOLID OXIDE FUEL CELLS | Modeling

Modeling and simulation of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are important for understanding the interaction between the different effects inside the fuel cell. Furthermore, they are necessary to improve the structural properties of the material and also the design of cells and stacks. Therefore, modeling and simulation have gained a tremendous interest not only from a theoretical point of view but also from an engineering point of view. In this article, simulation results at the component, cell, and stack level are presented, which help in the understanding of the complex behavior of an SOFC.
