Power generating burner SOFC model

Because a complete conversion of the fuel cannot be achieved in practice within the fuel cell, the SOFC stack can be treated like a power generating burner so as to integrate it easily into a system model. The cooling of the stack depends on the excess air ratio. 

Fig 2.11 The power generating burner model of a SOFC module. 

In designing practical SOFC systems with associated components such as fans, heat exchangers, etc., modelling of a SOFC as a power generating burner is very helpful (see Figure 3.7). The system is defined as a module consisting of SOFC cells connected in electrical parallel into stacks supplying a common burner with...
