Abstract
MCFC (molten carbonate fuel cell) is a relatively new kind of fuel cell that may be utilized in both local and large-scale energy distribution and generating systems. MCFCs are largely regarded as a viable source of renewable energy. Making an MCFC is a time-consuming and costly process. Mathematical modeling and efficiency simulations are essential to appropriately maximize its performance. Regenerative cycle, copper-chlorine cycle, and electric heater with PID controller is also studied to integrate them with MCFC to increase the efficiency of the overall system. Copper–Chlorine cycle is integrated to provide a stable stream of hydrogen and oxygen for the fuel cell. The Molten Carbonate fuel cell of stack 100 generates 1.203 MW of power at Voltage of 1.2 V each. Waste Heat recovery system is installed named regenerative Steam cycle which produces 2.94 MW of power. The total efficiency of system is 57% and the total extracted power is 4.143 MW. MATLAB/Simulink R2020a is used for modeling of multigeneration system with use of Engineering Equation Solver.
