A Computational Model for Two-Phase Fluid Flow, Chemical Reactions, and Heat Transfer in LAA-SOFC Fuel Cell

Preliminary results of computational modelling of a combined electrochemical, fluid dynamic, and heat transfer processes taking place in a liquid antimony anode (LAA) of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) are reported. The model includes computation of two-phase fluid flow of Sb and Sb2O3, electric fiel...

description Preliminary results of computational modelling of a combined electrochemical, fluid dynamic, and heat transfer processes taking place in a liquid antimony anode (LAA) of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) are reported. The model includes computation of two-phase fluid flow of Sb and Sb2O3, electric field and current, heat transfer that takes into account the Joule heating and the heat released or consumed by chemical reactions, and production of Sb and Sb2O3 by reduction and oxidation reactions, respectively. Following motion of interface separating the two phases, we monitor changes in the velocity, temperature and electric fields that take place during cell working process.
