Abstract
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are among the most promising technologies for
high-efficiency electric energy generation from natural gas, both with simple
fuel cell plants and with integrated gas turbine/steam turbine–fuel cell
systems. The high temperature exhaust gas from SOFC can be utilized in other
cycles, such as Rankine, Brayton for additional power generation or for heating
and cooling purpose. The analysis shows that the resulting maximum efficiency
of this SOFC-combined system can be up to 90%, depending upon the operating
condition and configuration used.
Authors
review the application of SOFC technology in power generation sector. They also
examine the research work undertaken or going on in this field.
