Abstract:In this study, the influence of radiation heat transfer within a planar SOFC is investigated. The numerical model is made by performing two-dimension mathematical model describing mass, momentum and heat transport phenomena coupled with electrochemical reactions. The finite volume method is used to solve the governing equations. Compared with literature results, the simulations show that radiation reduces temperature gradients and has a significant effect on enhancing heat transfer within the SOFC and counter … 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.
