    摘要: A solid oxide fuel cell of the present invention includes: a fuel cell unit including a fuel electrode, a solid electrolyte and an air electrode layered in the written order; a current collection assisting layer that is layered on an air electrode side of the fuel cell unit; air channels disposed on the air electrode side; and fuel gas channels disposed on a fuel electrode side. The air channels and the fuel gas channels are defined and formed by a current collector on the current collection assisting layer and a current collector on the fuel electrode side of the fuel cell unit. The air channels and the fuel gas channels extend in the same direction that is perpendicular to the fuel cell unit layering direction. The current collector on the air electrode side is fixed to the current collection assisting layer at first fixing portions that extend in the air channel extending direction, and the current collector on the fuel electrode side is fixed to the fuel electrode side of the fuel cell unit at second fixing portions that extend in the fuel gas channel extending direction. The solid oxide fuel cell is characterized in that the current collection assisting layer has such flexural rigidity that is lower in a direction perpendicular to the air channel extending direction than in the air channel extending direction.

    摘要: A SOFC system includes: a fuel cell stack; a reformer; an air supplier: a combustor; and a controller. In a stop control of the above system, the controller calculates an average of ratios of the air to the raw material supplied to the reformer as a first average, in a case in which a molar fraction of a hydrogen component in the anode off-gas is higher than a molar fraction of a raw material component in the anode off-gas, and calculates the average of the ratios of the air to the raw material supplied to the reformer as a second average, in a case in which the molar fraction of the hydrogen component in the anode off-gas is lower than the molar fraction of the raw material component in the anode off-gas. The controller controls the air supplier so that the first average is higher than the second average.

    摘要: Disclosed are novel configurations of Direct Carbon Fuel Cells (DCFCs), which optionally comprise a liquid anode. The liquid anode comprises a molten salt/metal, preferably Sb, and a fuel, which has significant elemental carbon content (coal, bio-mass, etc.). The supply of fuel is continuously replenished in the anode. In addition, a stack configuration is suggested where combining a large number of planar or tubular fuel elements.
