β¦ Synopsis
Kyocera's 1 kWe class SOFC power generation systems are based on its proprietary flat tube cells. The company achieved the world's most-efficient power generation of 54% in December 2003, and demonstrated that it could deliver the basic performance that supports household operations, and adjustment of power generation volume according to load changes. Kyocera has also developed a method to simultaneously reduce power consumption by improving AC conversion efficiency and by operating supplementary systems.

In the literature a mathematical model has been developed for the direct borohydride fuel cells by Verma et al. [1]. This model simply simulates the fuel cell system via kinetic mechanisms of the borohydride and oxygen. Their mathematical expression contains the activation losses caused by the oxida
In this study, carbon-supported PtNi alloys with different molar ratios synthesized by borohydride reduction were evaluated as anode catalysts for sodium borohydride fuel cells. The higher angle shifts of the Pt peaks from X-ray diffraction (XRD) account for the alloy formation between Pt and Ni. Th
