Analysis for Modeling of Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells Material Characteristics

Abstract:

The molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) is a difficulty in the research field of high-temperature fuel cells at present, and its strict hot start process and running status influence the material performance and life of the cell greatly. To deal with the problem, the MCFC mathematical modeling was analyzed firstly. Then a model of MCFC process based on material characteristics was advanced. Thirdly, the MCFC modeling structure, algorithm, and simulation applied the electrochemical processes were particularly presented. Finally, the results proved that it was fast and accurate, and provided the suitable model of MCFC system control at the view of application.
