Study on the cathode delamination of solid oxide fuel cell

고체산화물 연료전지의 공기극 박리 현상에 관한 연구

In this study, the performance degradation of SOFC single cell caused by the delamination between a cathode and an electrolyte is investigated. As the delamination rate increases, the voltage sharply decreases due to the decrease of reaction sites and losses increase. The current is concentrated to the intact area so that the current density is increased and the ohmic loss and the activation loss become higher. Most part of loss is due to the ohmc loss of electrolyte.
