Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is an efficient chemical fuel cell, which has been widely used in different fields. The successful application of this technology is of great significance to alleviate the energy crisis, meet the demand of the quantity and quality of electricity, and protect the ecological environment. SOFC has been utilized with gas turbine (GT), homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) and small-scale power generation. This article introduces the characteristics, working principle and engineering application of solid oxide fuel cells in more detail.
