SOFC
• • • Fuel Flexibility – – – – Benefit of SOFC Powered UUV Pure H2 not required for operation Hydrocarbon fuels (diesel-type) can be utilized & rapidly refueled Internal reforming of light hydrocarbons within fuel cell stack Tolerates impurities such as carbon monoxide and sulfur (ppm level) High Efficiency, 55-65% – (based on LHV of fuel conversion to electricity) Noble metal catalysts not required for electrodes and fast reaction kinetics at electrodes
