Abstract:Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is one of the new energy conversion technologies producing electricity and heat from fuel and oxidant through an electrochemical reaction. The high operating temperature has many advantages including high efficiency, flexible fuel adaptability and low emissions. However, it has also some drawbacks, e.g., thermal expansion mismatches among the involved materials, particularly when the temperature reaches around 1400 oC during the sintering process, which may cause non-uniform distri… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
