abstract = {A long-term test with a two-layer solid oxide cell stack
was carried out for more than 20,000 hours. The stack was
mainly characterized in a furnace environment in
electrolysis mode, with $50\%$ humidification of H2 at
800°C. The endothermic operation was carried out with a
current density of −0.5 Acm−2 and steam conversion rate
of $50\%.$ Electrolysis at lower temperatures (i.e., 700°C
and 750°C) and fuel cell operation (with 0.5 Acm−2 and
fuel utilization of $50\%)$ at 800°C were also carried out
(<2000 h each) for comparison. The voltage and area specific
resistance degradation rates were $∼0.6\%/kh$ and
$8.2\%/kh$ after ∼18,460 hours of operation. In total, the
stack was operated above 700°C for more than 20,000 hours.
Impedance measurement and analysis showed that the increase
of ohmic resistance was the main degradation phenomenon,
while electrode polarizations were kept nearly constant
before a severe burning took place in one layer.
Ni-depletion in fuel electrodes was confirmed during
post-mortem analysis, which was assumed to be the major
degradation mechanism observed. The stack performance and
degradation analysis under different working conditions, as
well as the results of preliminary post-mortem analysis will
be presented.},
