dc.description.abstractOne of the main challenges in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is the redox problem of Ni-based anodes. Therefore, the redox tolerance of the anode should be improved to increase the service life of the system. Since the real SOFC anodes have a heterogeneous structure with different grain sizes, a micro-level modeling is necessary. Especially, the re-oxidation step which creates large amount of stress is critical during the redox cycles. Therefore, in this study, the effects of re-oxidation temperatures and exposure times on the oxidation rate and stresses developed are investigated on a synthetically generated porous anode functional layer microstructure. A mathematical model is developed to characterize the re-oxidation process and solved numerically. The results indicate that the re-oxidation strongly depends on the re-oxidation temperature and exposure time. The time required for the full oxidation is found to be 7458.55, 313.14, 200.8 and 33.78 s at 800, 850, 900 and 950 degrees C, respectively for the generated anode microstructure. In addition, the created stresses in the anode structure are well above the critical material limits. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l. All rights reserved.
