Abstract
Fuel cell is an important alternative technology which is capable of overcoming energy shortage problem in the future. Solid oxide fuel cells use the abundant natural gas as fuel and they can be operated without the need of the expensive noble metal catalyst such as platinum; reducing the operating cost. The portable solid oxide fuel cells have been developed to produce power in a scale less than 1 kW. Researchers have produced the fuel cell stack with the peak power density of 348 mW cm-2. The power density was proportionally related to the operating temperature. There was an insignificant influence of the fuels (methane/air, propane/air and butane/ air) on the portable solid oxide fuel cells performance, in comparison to the influence of the operating temperature.
