Development of a Gasket Seal for Metal-Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells: Project Summary

This resource links to a document we hold in our system

Abstract:

The objective of this project was to develop a viable compressive gasket sealing solution for 3rd Generation Metal Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (3G-SOFCs) that operate at temperatures of 500-600°C. More specifically the aims were to:

  • Define, test and characterise a refined gasket material suitable for 3G-SOFCs operating between 500°C and 600°C
  • Develop computer based design tools to predict and improve gasket seal performance using gathered data
  • Compare expected seal performance with results from fuel cell seal tests
  • Evaluate a mass manufacturing route for the refined gasket form and design
  • All project milestones and targets were met or exceeded.
