Abstract

A novel design of single chamber solid oxide fuel cell (SC‐SOFC) microstack with cell‐array arrangement is fabricated and operated successfully in a methane–oxygen–nitrogen mixture. The small stack, consisting of five anode‐supported single cells connected in series, exhibits an open circuit voltage (OCV) of 4.74 V at the furnace temperature of 600 °C and a maximum power output of 420 mW (total active electrode area is 1.4 cm^2^) at the furnace temperature of 700 °C. A gas mixture of CH~4~/O~2~ = 1 leads to best performance and stability.
