Abstract Concern over global warming due to emission of green house gases has generated considerable interests and intensive development of fuel cells. In order to reduce the fuel cell manufacturing costs and to improve its performance and reliability, a better understanding of the fuel and oxidant species transport processes within fuel cell stack is important for fuel cell design. Fuel and oxidant stream flow distributions within a stack have significant impact on fuel cell performance and efficiency. To this end, this investigation presents the effects of the fuel and oxidant flow distributions on fuel cell stack performance with a model of fluid flow, heat and mass transfer including the electrochemical reaction, within a molten carbonate fuel cell under different gas supply conditions.

Abstract The production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) is a high energy-consuming process. The study of ways to reduce energy consumption and consequently to reduce operational costs is imperative. Toward this purpose, this study proposes a hybrid system adopting a mixed refrigerant for the liquefaction of natural gas that is precooled with an ammonia/water absorption refrigeration (AR) cycle utilizing the exhaust heat of a molten carbonate fuel cell, 700°C and 2.74 bar, coupled with a gas turbine and a bottoming Brayton super-critical carbon dioxide cycle. The inauguration of the ammonia/water AR cycle to the LNG process increases the cooling load of the cycle by 10%, providing a 28.3-MW cooling load duty while having a 0.45 coefficient of performance. Employing the hybrid system reduces energy consumption, attaining 85% overall thermal efficiency, 53% electrical efficiency and 35% fuel cell efficiency. The hybrid system produces 6300 kg.mol.h−1 of LNG and 146.55 MW of electrical power. Thereafter, exergy and sensitivity analyses are implemented and, accordingly, the fuel cell had an 83% share of the exergy destruction and the whole system obtained a 95% exergy efficiency.
