SOFC mathematic model for systems simulations-Part 2: definition of an analytical model

The results are expected to be more accurate then the ones obtained in part one, since the fuel cell is considered as a reactor where, for example, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and oxygen react while passing through the cell itself. Consequently, the equations take into account the concentration variation of both the anodic and cathodic gas components along the cell. Moreover, for the anodic gas, the water-shift reaction is also considered.
