DEGRADATION SIGNATURES IDENTIFICATION FOR STACK OPERATION DIAGNOSTICS (DESIGN)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
Today, main expectation for SOFC stationary systems competitiveness is to exceed a durability of 40 000 h, an objective which is not today reached except for very specific designs. A better understanding and detection of the failure mechanisms and the internal condition of stacks is of major importance for the introduction of the SOFC technology. If, massive SOFC stack or auxiliary failure can be ...

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells – Integrating Degradation Effects into Lifetime Prediction Models (SOFC-Life)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
Long-term stable operation of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) is a basic requirement for introducing this technology to the stationary power market. Degradation phenomena limiting the lifetime can be divided into continuous (baseline) and incidental (transient) effects.This project is concerned with understanding the details of the major SOFC continuous degradation effects and developing models that ...

Understanding and minimizing anode degradation in hydrogen and natural gas fuelled SOFCs (ROBANODE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are among the most promising fuel cell systems as they produce electric energy with high efficiency. Moreover, they are quite flexible concerning the use of hydrogen as well as of carbon based fuels, due to their high operation temperatures that allow for direct oxidation or reforming in the anode compartment, due to the catalytic action of the anode at these temper ...
