Tubular fuel cell e.g. solid oxide fuel cell-tube, for e.g. micro-combined heat and power plant for vehicle, has functional layer divided by area such that sections are formed, where sections are arranged at distance from each other

摘要

The fuel cell i.e. solid oxide fuel cell-tube (10), has a cylindrical carrier tube formed as a carrier for inner-lying functional layers e.g. anode layer, anode insulation section, cathode layer and electrolyte layer. An end of the tube is closed by a cap section (12), and a middle section (13) is formed between a gas-tight foot section (11) i.e. mounting flange, and the cap section. One of the layers is divided by an area extending in a longitudinal direction of the tube such that two functional layer sections are formed, where the sections are arranged at a distance from each other. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing tubular fuel cell.
