摘要 |
The invention relates to a method and to a system of operating a high-temperature fuel cell. At least one fuel cell, a reformer, an afterburner and a heat exchanger are present in the system. The total efficiency should be increased with the invention in accordance with the object set. In accordance with the invention, for this purpose, fresh air supplied to the fuel cell(s) at the cathode side is preheated in multiple stages by heat from the afterburning and from the heated air dissipated from the fuel cell(s) at the cathode side by means of a high-temperature heat exchanger.
