Abstract:
This study presents a novel model for investigating the microstructural evolution of nickel (Ni), yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ), and gas phases in a solid oxide cell (SOC), and its effects on cell performance. The triple-phase-boundary (TPB), which is the interface between the three phases, plays a crucial role in the electrochemical reaction of the SOC. However, during operation, nickel particles coarsen or migrate, leading to the redistribution of the TPB. To study this phenomenon, a phase field method was utilized to simulate the fuel electrode's detailed structure, and an approach was d

To resolve the existing issues of solid oxide cells such as degradation and efficiency improvement, it is essential to understand reaction mechanisms on the surface/interface such as triple phase boundary (TPB) as a highly active site that consists of catalysts, electrolytes, and gas phases.

In order to reduce the environmental impact of fossil fuels, a range of sustainable technologies for power generation and storage are currently being developed. In addition, efficient and low-cost methods for CO2 capture and conversion to form useful products are critically needed. One of the promising technologies towards achieving these goals involves the use of solid oxide cells (SOC), which are unique devices that can be employed in both the fuel cell mode for clean power generation and in the electrolysis mode to achieve CO2 conversion through its electrochemical reduction (‘CO2RR’).

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have attracted attention due to their high energy conversion efficiency and fuel flexibility. However, conventional anode-supported SOFCs composed solely of ceramics are susceptible to thermal stress such as rapid temperature rises and drops, which can cause cell cracks. Therefore, metal-supported SOFCs (MS-SOFCs) have been devised that use a stainless steel with excellent heat resistance as a support. In MS-SOFCs, elemental diffusion from the metal support during the cell manufacturing process causes microstructural changes in electrodes, leading to a reduction

Secondly, the high temperature offers favorable thermodynamic conditions decreasing the equilibrium potential for water splitting. This makes the SOCs technology a

Optimizing the structure of the porous transport layer (PTL) is crucial for improving the performance of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE), particularly for cells with low anode catalyst loadings.

As the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the anode is the limiting reaction step in PEMWE, inefficient use of the anode catalyst layer (aCL) would result in higher activation losses and, thus, cause a

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are usually operated at high temperatures (800-1000 °C). As the overall efficiency of SOFC is governed by thermodynamics and kinetics during operation, reducing the operating temperature to 500-650 °C causes significant increase in the electrode polarization losses especially at cathode due to high activation energy towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at cathode, which eventually reduces the overall cell performance.
