Abstract: | Thermo-mechanical properties of SOFC/SOEC electrodes have been computed by homogenization from three-dimensional reconstructions of their microstructure. The support and the functional layer of a Ni/YSZ supported cell and the oxygen electrode made of La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3−δ (LSCF) have been studied. Values of the effective Young's modulus obtained for the thick porous Ni/YSZ support are in good agreement with the experimental data (E = 35 GPa). Besides, for thin functional layers, the methodology supplies original values that are difficult to obtain by conventional experimental methods (E = 105 GPa for the Ni/YSZ Functional Layer and E = 55 GPa for the LSCF electrode). Furthermore, it has been shown that the effective elastic parameters are influenced by the following morphological parameters: the porosity and the formation factor that could also be related to the manufacturing process. Theses morphological parameters have however negligible effect on the effective thermal expansion. |
