We simulated the performance of systems using a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack which generates electricity by electrochemical partial oxidation of methane and a conventional steam‐reforming‐type SOFC (SRSOFC) stack. The net thermal efficiency in an atmospheric partial‐oxidation‐type SOFC (POSOFC)‐SRSOFC system was 8% higher than that in an atmospheric SRSOFC system at system outputs of 35 kW or more. The net thermal efficiency of a pressurized POSOFC‐SRSOFC‐gas turbine (GT) system was slightly higher than that of a pressurized SRSOFC‐GT system. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
