Abstract
A thermodynamic model of a high-temperature solid-oxide fuel cell is constructed on the basis of the thermodynamic laws of gas mixtures. The model is calibrated to the parameters of an experimental high-temperature solid-oxide fuel cell using an electric load factor. A parametric analysis of hybrid power-generating installations is carried out using a gas-turbine unit’s thermodynamic model verified for an aircraft-derivative gas-turbine unit in the 1–10 MW scale of power capacities.
