An input gas temperature of at least 855 K is necessary to guarantee good ionic conduction inside the cells. Maximum local temperatures higher than 960 K should be avoided because they can cause problems such as electrolyte loss and corrosion.Fuel cellsLocal temperature distributionFluid-dynamics optimisationDetailed modellingInternal ConditionsMcfcPerformanceSimulationStackEfficiencyBehaviorCobaltModelHeatThermal management of the molten carbonate fuel cell planetext::journal::journal article::research article
