A model for oxidation-induced stress analysis of Ni-based anode-supported planar solid oxide fuel cell
International Journal of Hydrogen Energy(2019)
摘要
A critical hurdle in realizing commercially viable anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is the re-oxidation of cermet anode during the cell abnormal operation. In this paper, the analysis of energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy on a partially oxidized half-cell demonstrates a particular inhomogeneous oxidation mechanism that a portion of anode near the air/anode interface is oxidized with a graded NiO content, while the remaining region hold a reduced status. Based on this observation, an analytical oxidation-induced stress model is developed to provide in-depth information about the mechanical behavior of the half-cell suffered from various oxidation. The dependences of the mechanical performance of half-cell on the NiO distribution and thickness of oxidation-graded zone are revealed. The results show that an increase in oxidation-graded zone elevates the stress level of electrolyte, but decreases the curvature under the same global degree of oxidation (DoO). In addition, the influence of thickness of oxidation-graded zone on the electrolyte failure probability is also investigated. According to these results, we conclude that the thickness of oxidation-graded zone should be as thin as possible in order to delay the electrolyte cracking.
