摘要:
A solid oxide fuel cell having a plurality of planar layered fuel cell units, an electrically conductive flow separator plate disposed between each of the fuel cell units, and a cathode contact material element disposed between each cathode electrode of the fuel cell units and each electrically conductive flow separator plate. The cathodes of the individual fuel cell units are modified such that the operating temperatures of the cathodes are matched with the temperatures they experience based upon their locations in the fuel cell stack. The modification involves adding to the cathode contact material and/or cathode at least one alloying agent which modifies the temperature of the cathode electrodes based upon the location of the cathode electrodes within the fuel cell stack. These alloying agents react with a component of the cathode electrode to form alloys.

A fuel cell includes an electrolyte electrode assembly and a first separator and a second separator sandwiching the electrolyte electrode assembly. The first and second separators have flat surfaces stacked on the electrolyte electrode assembly. The electrolyte electrode assembly includes an anode having a plurality of anode projections. The anode projections contact the first separator and form a fuel gas channel between the anode and the first separator. Further, the electrolyte electrode assembly includes a cathode having a plurality of cathode projections. The cathode projections contact the second separator and form an oxygen-containing gas channel between the cathode and the second separator.

In an electrolyte-electrode joined assembly (MEA), a cathode is formed on an intermediate layer stacked on a solid electrolyte. The cathode is a laminate containing at least a first layer facing the intermediate layer and a second layer disposed on the first layer. The first layer contains a perovskite-type composite oxide represented by BaxSr1-xCoyFe1-yO3 or LaxSr1-xCoyFe1-yO3. The intermediate layer has an open pore on a surface thereof facing the first layer, and the pore is filled with the first layer.
