Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we evaluated mechanical electrochemical (Mechano-electro-chemistry:MECh) properties of the components for SOFC comprised of ceria, zirconia, lanthanum gallate based electrolyte, and conducted experiments and numerical calculations to evaluate the mechanical properties of the single cell and stuck/module under oxidizing/reducing gradient conditions. A stress analysis method taking chemically induced expansion into account was developed for SOFC system evaluation, and studies were conducted using this method to identify fracture conditions. The aim is to develop a foundation of SOFC design/evaluation methods which take into account mechanical and electrochemical factors.
