Performance behavior of solid oxide fuel cell with various anode gas

The performance behavior of solid oxide fuel cell using reformate gas as fuels was investigated. When the pre-reformate gas was used without steam, the maximum power density was 50% lower than that using H2. This may be due to carbon deposition caused by the pyrolysis of remaining hydrocarbons. However, when the steam was added, the maximum power density showed a relatively small variation according to reformate gas. When pre-reformate gas with steam was fed into anode, the SOFC showed the stable performance without sharp voltage drop during 10h operation.
