Synthesis gas for an electrochemical generator was produced in a thermochemical reactor with autothermal air conversion of methane (natural gas). Based on thermal balances of the reactor, a battery of SOFCs and a boiler-utilizer (BU) for heating primary and secondary air, cathodic air and methane, the following parameters were calculated: temperature at the anode, EMF of the fuel cell, electrical efficiency (gross) of the electrochemical generator, portion of hydrogen oxidized at the SOFC?s anode and specific cons...
