Abstract

For the low-temperature SOFC/GT combined cycle system used to recover the SOFC cathode intake air by using turbine exhaust gas circulation, a simulation model of the combined cycle system was established based on the lumped parameter model of SOFC, turbine, compressor and preheater. Some experimental data have verified the validity of the zero-dimensional model of SOFC. The system simulation results show that the air intake pressure caused by the air recirculation does not completely depend on the outlet pressure of the compressor. When the outlet pressure of the compressor is between 0.2MPa and 0.5MPa. The intake pressure of the SOFC will decrease to varying degrees, and it depends on the proportion of the exhaust gas recirculation. The compression ratio is not related to the output power and efficiency of the SOFC. Increase in compression ratio will reduce the output of the turbine, resulting in a reduction in the overall efficiency of the system.
