Molten carbonate fuel cell characterization: Electrical characteristics determination and experimental results; Caratterizzazione di una cella a combustibile a carbonati fusi: Tecnologie per la determinazione delle caratteristiche elettriche e risultati sperimentali

Abstract

An overview of the main characteristics of active molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) components is presented; particular attention is given to electrodic reactions and corrosion mechanisms. Following a description of the laboratory cell used in the experimental work, a discussion is made concerning the cell`s thermal and electric systems management. The temporal evolution of electrical parameters of the cell is correlated with the operative conditions; moreover, a comparison between theoretical and measured data is made. Current erogation was investigated by means of external loads, voltage control and galvanostatic control of the cell. Finally, the change of cell voltage and electrodic potentials were studied as a function of cell current, and the instability of the cathode was correlated to the cell performance.
