| Abstract: | In the present work, the effect of the hydrogen and the air temperature values on the temperature distribution in a Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cell is studied by the aid of a two-dimensional mathematical model. Two different configurations of the Solid Oxide Fuel Cells are examined: i) the Anode Supported Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (ASP_SOFC) and ii) the Electrolyte Supported Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (ESP_SOFC). In order to describe the temperature distribution within the SOFC, the coupling of the mass and energy transport phenomena along with the electrochemistry is required. The studied parameters are: a) the hydrogen and the air temperature values and b) the geometry configurations. The complex system of the governing equations is numerically solved with the finite differences method and the calculation of the temperature distribution within each domain of the SOFCs is calculated via the 2-D mathematical model processed by FORTRAN language. Finally, the mathematical model predictions for the temperature distribution under the influence of the studied parameters are thoroughly discussed. |
