Cell and current collector felt arrangement for solid oxide electrochemical cell combinations
This patent describes a high-temperature solid electrolyte electrochemical cell combination, comprising an annular, axially elongated, continuous, interior electrode containing at least one interior gas feed conduit therein, annular, solid electrolyte segments around and covering portions of the inner electrode; annular outer electrode segments around and covering the electrolyte segments; annular, electronically conducting, non-porous, interconnection material disposed between electrolyte segments and in contact with the inner electrode; and annular, electronically conducting, porous, metal-fiber current collector felts disposed on and around the annular interconnection material and portions of the annular outer electrode segments, where the interconnection material and metal fiber felts are disposed circumferentially about the cell combination, transversely to the axial length of the cell combination.
