Introduction § Most of the SOFC research is conducted in
furnace operation!
§ Hermeticity problems are still observed!
§ Better understanding of the effect of different operating conditions on TM of stacks in furnace required!
§ Knowledge of detailed thermomechanical long-term behaviour needs to be improved
§ The combination of experiments and modelling may shed light on the issue

Concluding remarks
§ Long-term TM behaviour of fuel cells operating in furnace has been investigated, using advanced modelling techniques
§ A 3D multiphysics sub-model of the Julich F-Design was utilised § Material and geometrical non-linearities are considered § All modes of heat transfer, flow are considered § Experimentally determined non-linear elastic-plastic material behaviour
and time, rate-dependent creep strain are included § Experimentally determined operating conditions are employed
§ The thermomechanical response of the manifold region subject to different process conditions has been investigated for 100h constant operation
§ Air side shows higher stress values than the fuel side § 77%CH4 operation shows the least stress compared to H2 and 38%CH4 § 1200h 77%CH4 operation predictions show that the creep deformation
expands and reduces stress, which reveals that the sealants at these locations a prone to leakage and failure. A higher creep resistant steel or design optimisation of the manifold region is required.
