Abstract: In an SOFC stack system, a reformer supplies reformate to the stack. An anode tail gas portion is recycled into the reformer. An inline flowmeter indicates an apparent recycle flow rate. A map of anode tail gas composition as a function of fuel utilization efficiency U, reformer oxygen/carbon ratio O:C, and recycle percentage R is generated on a laboratory test bed at various recycle rates and fuel utilization rates. Compositions are sent through a flowmeter and a Coriolus mass flowmeter provide a Coriolus flow and sensor voltage function across the various compositions and flow rates to create an average curve and an average (reference) voltage at a given flow. A scale factor Z is calculated and used to determine a scaled sensor voltage X for use in an average flow polynomial curve fit equation to calculate tail gas mass flow rate at any flow value indicated by the flow meter.

Abstract: A fuel cell system comprising a plurality of fuel cell stacks. The stacks may be connected electrically in any sequence desired, such as in series, in parallel, or in combinations thereof or electrically independent. The electrical performance of each stack is optimized by some metric or the operating temperature of the stack is controlled by controlling the internal operating temperature of the stack, which in turn is controlled by controlling the output voltage, output current, or load of each stack independently of the other stacks. In large fuel cell systems having a large plurality of stacks, adjacent stacks may of necessity be grouped as stack pairs with joint electrical control rather than individual control, but at some sacrifice in optimal operation.
