Abstract

The invention discloses an indirect internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell stack, comprising a solid oxide fuel battery and a stack core alternatively stacked by metal connectors, a regular air flow buffer cavity; the fuel cell stack further comprises an indirect internal reforming fuel gas inlet buffer cavity; the indirect internal reforming fuel gas inlet buffer cavity comprises an initial fuel gas inlet buffer cavity and a fuel gas reforming room; the an initial fuel gas inlet buffer cavity is used for buffering after the initial hydrocarbon fuel enters; the fuel gas reforming room is used for reforming the initial hydrocarbon fuel to carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide, and conveying to the fuel cell stack. The indirect internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell stack avoids the problems of anode carbon deposition, sulphur positioning and others caused by direct internal reforming while saves the heating and heat exchange system for the external reforming; besides, the fuel cell stack is discharged by an electrochemical reaction of an electric pile itself; when the system design is simplified, the fuel utilization rate of the solid oxide fuel battery is also improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of clean and renewable energy, and more specifically relates to an indirect internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell stack. Background technique [0002] Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has high power generation efficiency and low greenhouse gas emissions. With the rapid development of related theory and material research, it has gradually become an electrochemical power generation device that is about to be commercialized. Because it mainly works at a relatively high temperature (550-1000°C), SOFC has flexible fuel selectivity, except for traditional hydrogen (H 2 ), methane (CH 4 ), natural gas, biogas, methanol, ethanol and other hydrocarbon gases can be used as fuel for SOFC. Except H 2 , CO, and other hydrocarbon fuels must be catalytically reformed before being supplied, and converted into H 2 , CO as the main component of the gas can be used by SOFC. Taking economical and widely used natural gas as an example...
