Patent
·
OSTI ID:1176055
A solid oxide fuel assembly is made, wherein rows of fuel cells, each having an outer interconnection and an outer electrode, are disposed next to each other with corrugated, electrically conducting expanded metal mesh member between each row of cells, the corrugated mesh having top crown portions and bottom portions, where the top crown portion have a top bonded open cell nickel foam which contacts outer interconnections of the fuel cells, said mesh and nickel foam electrically connecting each row of fuel cells, and where there are no more metal felt connections between any fuel cells.
