Investigating on the Flow Distribution of a Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Stack

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a realistic 3D numerical model is established to investigate the flow distribution of a 10-cells short planar SOFC stack. The effect of the basic geometric parameters, such as the sub-manifold radii () and the single channel width (), on the stack flow uniformity is examined. And the results and discusses are presented in this paper. This investigation for the SOFC stack holds great significance for the SOFC stack commercialization.
