Abstract
In this study, a 100 cm2 cell frame for a molten carbonate fuel cell was designed using CFD analysis. Electrochemical reactions, gas flow, and the heat transfer in 100 cm2 cell frame were modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics.
Two design variables such as the height of the cell frame and the length of the gas input area were determined to obtain minimized temperature distribution and uniform gas distribution. With two design parameter such as height of the cell frame and the length of the gas flow channel, the temperature difference in the cell fame was decreased to 5℃ and the gas uniformity in the flow channel were achieved.
