Method and apparatus for controlled solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) / turbine hybrid power generation

摘要

A method for operating a pressurized solid oxide fuel cell/turbine (SOFC/turbine) hybrid power generation system (10) in which the hybrid power generation system includes an SOFC generator (14) and a turbine generator (16) includes controlling airflow (24) to the SOFC/turbine hybrid power generation system in accordance with power demand (28) and utilizing electrical current drawn from the SOFC generator to regulate SOFC generator temperature.
