Abstract

Solid oxide fuel cell/gas turbine hybrid systems that use three gas turbines having different power outputs were devised and their performance was compared. The power shares of the gas turbine and fuel cell and the net system efficiency were compared among the three systems, and their variations with the design fuel cell temperature were investigated. The system efficiency was predicted to be insensitive to the fuel cell temperature in the sub-MW system, but it increased with increasing fuel cell temperature in both the multi-MW and hundred-MW systems. The influence of air bypass around the fuel cell on the system performance was also investigated.

출력 규모가 다른 세가지 상용 가스터빈들을 바탕으로 고체산화물 연료전지/가스터빈 하이브리드 시스템을 구성하고 성능을 비교하였다. 각 가스터빈을 사용할 때 연료전지와 가스터빈의 출력 비중 및 효율을 비교, 분석하였고 연료전지 설계온도를 변화시키면서 출력 비중의 변화와 시스템 효율 변화를 분석하였다. 수십 kW 급 소형 가스터빈을 사용한 하이브리드 시스템에서는 연료전지 온도가 변하여도 효율은 거의 변화가 없었지만 MW 급 및 수백 MW 급 등 중,대형 가스터빈을 사용하는 경우에는 연료 전지 작동온도가 높아질수록 시스템 효율이 높아짐을 확인하였다. 또한 연료전지로 공급되는 공기량을 조절하여 연료전지 출력 비중을 변화시키는 것에 대해서도 해석하였다.
