Abstract: | The LSGM(La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3) electrolyte based intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (ITSOFCs) supported by porous nickel substrates with different permeabilities are prepared by plasma spray technology for performance studies. The cell having a porous nickel substrate with a permeability of 3.4 Darcy, an LSCM(La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.5Mn0.5O3) interlayer on the nickel substrate, a nano-structured LDC(Ce0.55La0.45O2)/Ni anode functional layer, an LDC interlayer, an LSGM/LSCF(La0.58Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3) cathode interlayer and an LSCF cathode current collector layer shows remarkable electric output power densities such as 1270 mW cm−2 (800 °C), 978 mW cm−2 (750 °C) and 702 mW cm−2 (700 °C) at 0.6 V cell voltage under 335 ml min−1 H2 and 670 ml min−1 air flow rates. SEM, TEM, EDX, AC impedance, voltage and power data with related analyses are presented here to support this high performance. The durability test of the cell with the best power performance shows a degradation rate of about 3% kh−1 at the test conditions of 400 mA cm−2 constant current density and 700 °C. Results demonstrate the success of APS technology for fabricating high performance metal-supported and LSGM based ITSOFCs. |
