Abstract
A cogeneration power plant based on a solid oxide fuel cell with an aluminum-hydrogen reactor in which hydrogen is obtained from aluminum and water in the presence of alkali is described. The efficiency of such a reactor is 43,7%. The fuel utilization rate at a power plant with an electric capacity of 10 kW is 42,3%. The electrical efficiency of the fuel cell is 77.2%, the proportion of hydrogen oxidized in the anode is 80.5%. The specific consumption of conventional fuel for the production of electric energy is 0.283 kg reference fuel/kW·h, and for the production of thermal energy 78.7 kg reference fuel/GJ.Specific indicators are higher compared to similar indicators for cogeneration power plants running on hydrocarbon fuel, but less than in the Russian energy system – 0.33 kg reference fuel/kW·h.
