Abstract

The invention discloses a tubular solid oxide fuel cell structure. The structure is divided into a plurality of layers along the axial direction; each layer comprises a complete tubular fuel cell small unit, each fuel cell small unit sequentially comprises an outer shell layer, an anode electrode, an electrolyte layer, a cathode electrode and a spiral flow guide fin from outside to inside, the anode electrode comprises an anode electrode supporting layer and an anode reaction layer, and the cathode electrode comprises a cathode reaction layer and a cathode supporting layer; an anode gas channel is formed between the outer shell and the anode electrode supporting layer at an interval, and an axis channel in the cathode supporting layer is a cathode gas channel; and electrode layers corresponding to small fuel cell units are the same in thickness, but different in axial width, composition particles and distribution of the composition particles, and the diameters of the particles of different layers are regularly distributed along the axial direction. The mass transfer characteristic of the battery can be effectively enhanced, the battery efficiency is improved, the battery temperature and other axial distribution can be adjusted, and the supercooling effect of a fuel inlet section is controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solid oxide fuel cells, in particular to a tubular solid oxide fuel cell structure and other types of fuel cells using similar structures. Background technique [0002] Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a device that can directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy, which has the advantages of cleanliness, high efficiency and stability. Its operating temperature can reach 600 to 1000°C, so it can directly use methane gas as fuel, which is more economical, but the use of hydrocarbon fuels may bring the risk of carbon deposition and reduce battery efficiency. [0003] At present, the common method to solve carbon deposition is to add a small amount of air and water vapor to methane gas, and solve the problem of carbon deposition through methane reforming and water vapor shift reaction. However, since traditional tubular fuel cells usually adopt an integrated structure, that is, each functional lay...
