摘要:
A solid oxide fuel cell stack is disclosed. In one aspect, the solid oxide fuel cell stack includes unit cells, an external collector, a first stack collecting member, a cap, and a suspension member. The external collector contacts an outer periphery of each of the unit cells and electrically connects the unit cells to each other. The first stack collecting member is positioned to collect current from a distal unit cell. A cap is provided in one end of the distal unit cell. The suspension member has one side thereof suspended from the cap and the other side fixed to the first stack collecting member to distribute weight of the first stack collecting member. Structural stability of a stack collector may be maintained even at oxidizing atmosphere of high temperature when driving the fuel cell stack.

摘要:
A solid oxide fuel cell is provided. The solid oxide fuel cell has a structure in which a separate thermal expansion member is provided in a current collecting body formed on the inner circumferential surface of a first electrode so that the uniform contact between a support body of the first electrode and the current collecting body can be maintained even though the internal diameter of the support body of the first electrode is changed. Accordingly, the current collection performance of the current collecting body is enhanced through the thermal expansion member between the first electrode and the current collecting body, thereby improving the entire performance of the fuel cell.
