The kinetics of methanol-steam reformation were studied in an idealized tube reactor and a non-ideal internal reforming fuel cell. Methanol conversion in the IRFC was significantly less than in an ideal plug flow reactor, but for higher current densities the IRFC requires less catalyst.

β¦ Synopsis
environments was investigated. The corrosion rate is higher under 'outlet' conditions at 700Β°C compared to standard conditions at 650Β°C and 'inlet' conditions at 600Β°C. The corrosion potential increases with time when a protective corrosion layer is formed. Eventually it reaches a more positive potential, close to the cathode operating potential. On Thermax 4762 steel, the corrosion layer grows relatively quickly in the first 48 h, then slows down when a protective layer is formed. The corrosion layer consists of an Fe-rich outer layer and a protective AI-and Cr-rich inner layer.

## Abstract Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is highly efficient and is a promising candidate for future power systems. Among the many types of SOFCs which have been reported, the micro tubular design offers improved thermal robustness, with the possibility of rapid startβup/shutβdown. In this study, a
Nanocrystalline tetragonal zirconia films using ESD Presenr efforts are focused on lowering the operating temperature of SOFCs from -1000Β°C to -750Β°C (i.e. IT-SOFCs). However, such temperatures need a significant reduction in the electrolyte resistance. Here pure tetragonal and nanocrystalline 2 mol
Polarized electrochemical vapour deposition (PEVD) was used to fabricate composite anodes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) containing nearly 100% metal by coating a porous metallic anode. Densification of the metallic electrode during deposition is a problem; however, densification can be slowed b
