Abstract
The effects of direct internal reforming in a fuel cell solid oxide (SOFC) on thermal fields are studied by mathematical modeling. This study presents the thermal fields of a standard fuel cell (Ni-YSZ/YSZ/LSM) anode supported. This study is also made in the perpendicular plane at the flow of gases. The fuel cell is powered by air and fuel, CH4, H2, CO2, CO and H2O hence the birth of the phenomenon of direct internal reforming (DIR-SOFC). It is based on reforming chemical reactions, steam reforming reaction and water-gas shift reaction. The main purpose of this work is the visualization of temperature fields under the influence of global chemical reactions and the confirmation of the thermal behavior of this chemical reaction. The thermal fields are obtained by a computer program (FORTRAN).
