Research on the SOFC/GT systems for improving energy efficiency

Abstract

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells(SOFC) are of great interest. The feature of SOFCs makes them suitable for the whole SOFC-GT hybrid systems because the electrochemical conversion makes it release super high temperature especially combined with gas turbine system which can result higher efficiency. In this research, it helps to analysis and understand a hybrid solid oxide fuel cell and gas turbine power system model. These two models have been built based on dynamic expressions; it improve knowledge on critical incidents and their appearance and give recommendations on optimum process parameters and control design.
