Abstract

Experimental analysis of a planar 100 mm × 100 mm SOFC cell was conducted during operation at 1173 K in direct internal reforming (DIR) mode. In the first phase the rate of direct internal reforming was varied from 0 to 100% what corresponds to complete external reforming and complete DIR, respectively. In the second phase 1.2 ppm(v) of H2S was introduced to the feeding gas and the variation of the rate of direct internal reforming was repeated. Following the experimental analysis the numerical model was proposed to determine the correlation between the presence of the poisoning agent and the electrochemical performance. The effect on the resistance of the cell was studied. The lumped volume model was applied to predict the cell voltage. With the use of the experimental data it was possible to determine the relative change of the model parameters which describe the ionic and electronic conductivity of the SOFC. Model was adopted for predictive modeling of the solid oxide fuel cell, operated in DIR-SOFC mode with and without the presence of hydrogen sulfide. Additionally, literature data measured for a cell operated in complete internal reforming mode with variation of the sulfur content in the feeding gas were analyzed to define the effect of H2S content on the performance drop. Relative change of the resistance of a cell was correlated with the rate of internal reforming and the content of sulfur.
