Steady State Modelling of Solid Oxide Cells: Modelling the steady state operational performance of solid oxide electrolysers/fuel cell systems in order to answer economic questions

With climate change is an undeniable reality, hydrogen based energy solutions will become increasingly important for specific aspects of economies. To meet emission targets, Solid Oxide Electrolysers (SOECs) and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) will become an increasingly useful part of global energy infrastructure. Identifying the economically...

Design of an H2-O2 fired Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine Test Set Up

The issue of climate change has fostered the innovation of new technology in an attempt to curb the rising emissions, with the energy sector being one of the biggest contributors of carbon emissions. Renewable Energy has shown promise in reducing the emissions by up to 32 %. However the problem of intermittency of<br/>renewable energy sources is...

An Ammonia-Fuelled Solid Oxide Fuel Cell - Internal Combustion Engine Hybrid System for Ships

Ammonia (NH3) may reduce CO2 emissions from the marine industry as it is carbon-free and more energy-dense than hydrogen or batteries. Pure ammonia exhibits poor combustion characteristics, so several researchers have already operated small-scale internal combustion engines (ICEs) with ammonia-hydrogen blends. However, nitrogen oxides NOx and...
