An effective strategy for generating combined heat and power (CHP) systems is to use the combustion of hydrocarbons to provide fuel reforming and heat production for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) operation. Though tubular SOFCs (tSOFCs) are well suited to the thermal cycling associated with combustion systems, they have a geometric limitation which requires significant alteration to the combustion chamber. These alterations can be eliminated by producing an anode supported internal cathode-tSOFC (IC-tSOFC) which can be directly integrated into the chamber with minimal alterations. Novel methods used to produce IC-tSOFCs are discussed in this work. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and performance characterization are used to analyze fabricated cells. With a peak power density of 369 mW∙cm⁻², and an open circuit voltage (OCV) of 0.98 V, it is confirmed that novel production methods for IC-tSOFCs have been successful.

产生热电联产 (CHP) 系统的一种有效策略是利用碳氢化合物的燃烧为固体氧化物燃料电池 (SOFC) 操作提供燃料重整和产热。尽管管状 SOFC (tSOFC) 非常适合与燃烧系统相关的热循环，但它们具有几何限制，需要对燃烧室进行重大改造。这些变化可以通过生产阳极支撑的内部阴极-tSOFC (IC-tSOFC) 来消除，该内部阴极-tSOFC 可以直接集成到腔室中，改动最小。在这项工作中讨论了用于生产 IC-tSOFC 的新方法。扫描电子显微镜 (SEM) 和性能表征用于分析制造的电池。峰值功率密度为 369 mW∙cm ^-2和 0.98 V 的开路电压 (OCV)，证实 IC-tSOFC 的新型生产方法已经成功。
