FUEL CHANNEL VARIABLE ORIFICE DESIGN [PDF]
A design analysis of a variable adjustable orifice that can be used on all fuel channels is presented. With an adjustmert range of 1/4 turn the flow can be controlled over the range 9.9 to 36.9 lb/sec with a constant sensitivity of 5.85 deg F/deg. rot. for DELTA T = 400 deg F. Temperature sensitivity can be reduced by increasing the adjustmert range; a

Performance of an Anode Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cell with Indirect Internal Reforming [PDF]
The conversion of fuel into hydrogen-rich gas is necessary for fuel cells. This can be achieved either indirectly in fuel processing systems, in which the hydrocarbon feed is converted in an external catalytic steam reformer, or directly in the fuel cell.
