Summary
This contribution deals with the mathematical modelling of a high temperature molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) and serves as a basis for the following three contributions of this mini-symposium. After a motivation and a short introduction into the working principle of the MCFC, the most important equations of the model are presented. This model is applied for optimisation purposes and as a basis for the derivation of reduced models specifically designed for different tasks.
