Impact of Random Geometric Distortions on the Performance and Reliability of an SOFC

Zacharie Wuillemin, Thierry Mikaël Cornu

A method based on Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) is developed to assess the impact of manufacturing tolerances on the performance and reliability of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of the anode gas diffusion la ...

RedOx Stability of Anode Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Antonin Faes

The weakness of nickel-based solid oxide fuel cell anodes is their low ability to withstand re-oxidation at working temperature, especially for the anode-supported cell design. The volume expansion coming along with nickel (Ni) oxidation induces stresses i ...

Tribocorrosion of stainless steel in sulfuric acid: Identification of corrosion-wear components and effect of contact area

Electrochemical and friction measurements during unidirectional sliding tests are used to monitor and to evaluate the tribocorrosion behavior of a passivating material. Tribocorrosion is the interplay between chemical, electrochemical, and mechanical proce ...

Electrochemical behaviour of ammonia (NH4+/NH3) on electrochemically grown anodic iridium oxide film (AIROF) electrode

Christos Comninellis, Agnieszka Kapalka, Stéphane Fierro, Olivier Frey

The electrochemical behaviour of ammonia (NH4+/NH3) in sodium perchlorate at pH 9 has been investigated on electrochemically grown anodic iridium oxide film (AIROF) electrode. In base electrolyte at pH 9, the Ir(IV)/Ir(III) surface redox couple exhibits un ...

Simulation of thermal stresses in anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell stacks. Part I: Probability of failure of the cells

Daniel Favrat, Jan Van Herle, Arata Nakajo, Zacharie Wuillemin

Structural stability issues in planar solid oxide fuel cells arise from the mismatch between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the components. The stress state at operating temperature is the superposition of several contributions, which differ depe ...

Chemical-mechanical polishing of tungsten : electrochemical and tribocorrosion approach

Jelena Stojadinovic

The chemical-mechanical polishing process (CMP) is an essential part of the production of integrated circuits. Metal to be polished in the CMP reacts with the oxidants from the aqueous suspension (slurry) and the passive film is formed on the metal surface ...

Nickel-Zirconia Anode Degradation and Triple Phase Boundary Quantification from Microstructural Analysis

Jan Van Herle, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Antonin Faes

Microstructural evolution of anode supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) during medium-term stack testing has been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Low acceleration voltage SEM imaging is used to separate the three anode phases (nicke ...

A new strategy of molecular overcharge protection shuttles for lithium ion batteries

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin

The conventional strategy of overcharge protection for lithium ion batteries uses redox molecules having oxidation potential higher than the cathodic materials in the electrolyte. Here we propose a novel approach by using redox molecules having reduction p ...

Reactivity of electrogenerated free hydroxyl radicals and activation of dioxygen on boron-doped diamond electrodes

Agnieszka Kapalka

Synthetic boron-doped diamond (BDD) thin film is an electrode material with high chemical and dimensional stability, low background current and a very wide potential window of water stability. Upon anodic polarization, BDD generates hydroxyl radicals that ...

Anode dusting during the electrolytic production of aluminium

Timea Tordai

The disintegration of the carbon anodes during the electrolysis of alumina produces dust particles contaminating the electrolytic bath. This phenomenon, called dusting, is one of the most deleterious Al electrolysis failures, as it leads to a significant d ...
