Abstract
To improve the industry benchmark of solid oxide fuel cell systems (SOFC), we consider anode off-gas recirculation using a blower as an add-on to our next-generation SOFC system. Evolutionary algorithms compare the different design alternatives, i.e. co-flow or counter-flow stack operation with hot or cold recirculation. The system performance is evaluated through multi-objective optimization criteria, i.e. maximization of electrical efficiency and cogeneration efficiency. The results obtained suggest that improvements to the best SOFC systems, in terms of net electrical efficiency, are achievable.
