Development of Reduced P-SOFC Models

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Reduced Modelling of Planar Fuel Cells

Abstract

This chapter develops reduced P-SOFC models via both spatial smoothing with novel correlation factors and asymptotic reduction, based on the 3D P-SOFC model introduced in Sect. 3.3, in order to get significant reduction of computational cost with desired numerical accuracy.
