摘要
The use of a high temperature fuel cell (HTFC) to continuously and simultaneously polygenerate hydrogen in combination with electricity and heat represents a promising technology as a source of fuel for fuel cell vehicles. Different configurations of polygenerating HTFC, including different designs with internal and external reforming are options to polygenerate electricity, hydrogen and heat. The current study analyzes and compares six different configurations based on solid oxide technology. Efficiency results based upon the Supplemental Input Method demonstrate that internal reforming configurations achieve higher performance than when hydrogen product is produced in an external reformer. The overall efficiency and the efficiency in the generation of each product are used as the basis for comparison. Copyright (C) 2011, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
