Newly structured metal-supported solid oxide fuel cell was fabricated and characterized by impedance analysis and galvanodynamic experiment. Using a cermet adhesive, thin ceramic layer composed of anode(Ni/YSZ) and electrolyte(YSZ) was joined with STS430 metal support of which flow channel was fabricated. $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}Co_{0.4}Mn_{0.6}O_3$ perovskite oxide was used as cathode material. Single cell performance was increased and saturated at operating time to 300hours at 800$^{\circ}C$ because of cathode sintering effect. The sintering effect was reinvestigated by half cell test and exchange current density was measured as 0.005A/$cm^2$. Maximum power density of the cell was 0.09W/$cm^2$ at 800$^{\circ}C$. Numerical analysis was carried out to classify main factors influencing the single cell performances. Compared to experimental IV curve, simulated curve based on experimental parameters such as exchange current density was in good agreement.

To prevent an interfacial reaction between the anode and the electrolyte layer during the conventional high-temperature co-firing process, an anode-supported type cell with a thin-film electrolyte was fabricated by low-temperature ceramic thick film coating process. Ni-GDC cermet composite was used as the anode material and YSZ was used as the electrolyte material. Open circuit voltage and maximum power density were found to strongly depend on the surface uniformity of the anode functional layer. By optimizing the microstructure of the anode functional layer, the open circuit voltage and maximum powder density of the cell increased to 1.11 V and $1.35W/cm^2$, respectively, at $750^{\circ}C$. When a GDC barrier layer was applied between the YSZ electrolyte and the LSCF cathode, the cell showed good stability, with almost no degradation up to 100 h. Anode-supported type SOFCs with high performance and good stability were fabricated using a coating process.

한국에너지기술연구원에서는 중온 ($700{\sim}800^{\circ}C$) 작동용 연료극 지지체 평관형 SOFC 스택을 구성하는 단위 번들을 개발했다. 연료극 지지체 평관형 셀은 Ni/YSZ 서밋 연료극 지지체 튜브, 8몰% $Y_2O_3$ stabilized $ZrO_2$ (YSZ) 전해질, $LaSrMnO_3$ (LSM)과 LSM-YSZ composite 및 $LaSrCoFeO_3(LSCF)$로 구성된 다중층 공기극으로 구성됐다. 제조된 연료극지지체 평관형 셀은 유도 브레이징 법에 의해 페리틱 (ferritic) 금속 캡에 접합됐고, 공기극의 전류집전을 위해 공기극 외부에 Ag 선 및 $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}CoO_3(LSCo)$ paste를 이용했으며, 연료극의 전류집전은 Ni felt, wire, 그리고 paste를 이용했다. 단위 번들을 만들기 위한 연료극 지지체 평관형 셀의 반응 면적은 셀 당 $90\;cm^2$ 이었으며, 2개의 셀이 병렬로 연결되어 1개의 단위 번들이 됐고, 총 12개의 단위 번들이 직렬로 연결되어 스택을 구성한다. 공기 및 3%의 가습된 수소를 산화제 및 연료로 사용한 단위 번들의 운전 결과 최대 성능은 $800^{\circ}C$에서 $0.39\;W/cm^2$의 출력이 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 연료극 지지체 평관형 SOFC 셀의 기본 기술과 KIER 만의 독특한 연료극 지지체 평관형 SOFC 스택을 구성하는 단위 번들의 개념을 확립할 수 있었다.

Line Shaped Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) with multilayered structure has been fabricated via direct-writing process. The cell is electrolyte of Ni-YSZ cermet anode, YSZ electrolyte and LSM cathode. They were processed into pastes for the direct writing process. Syringe filled with each electrode and electrolyte paste was loaded into the computer-controlled robe-dispensing machine and the paste was dispensed through cylindrical nozzle of 0.21 mm in diameter under the air pressure of 0.1 tow onto a moving plate with 1.22 mm/s. First of all, the anode paste was dispensed on the PSZ porous substrate, and then the electrolyte paste was dispensed. The anode/electrolyte and the PSZ substrate were co-fired at $1350^{\circ}C$ in air atmosphere for 3 h. The cathode layer was similarly dispensed and sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. All the electrode/electrolyte lines were visually aligned during the direct writing process. The effective reaction area of fabricated SOFC was $0.03 cm^2$, and the thickness of anode, electrolyte and cathode was 20 $\mu$m, 15 $\mu$m, and 10 $\mu$m, respectively. The single line-shaped SOFC fabricated by direct-writing process exhibited OCV of 0.95 V and maximum power density of $0.35W/cm^2$ at $810^{\circ}C$.
