An integrated methodology aims at estimation of the actual possibility of operating an hybrid system based on a solid oxide fuel cell and a micro gas turbine, by paying special attention to the adaptation of the rotating and stationary components to the off-design conditions. The method leads to the definition of the operating space of the hybrid system, thus allowing detection of optimal choices for an efficient part-load operation. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based analysis of the combustion chamber is addressed to the verification of the response of this component when employed as an afterburner of the residual species from the fuel cell.

Abstract
An integrated methodology aims at estimation of the actual possibility of operating an hybrid system based on a solid oxide fuel cell and a micro gas turbine, by paying special attention to the adaptation of the rotating and stationary components to the off-design conditions. The method leads to the definition of the operating space of the hybrid system, thus allowing detection of optimal choices for an efficient part-load operation. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based analysis of the combustion chamber is addressed to the verification of the response of this component when employed as an afterburner of the residual species from the fuel cell.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
