CONTACT ELEMENT FOR AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE CONNECTION BETWEEN AN ANODE AND AN INTERCONNECTOR OF A HIGH-TEMPERATURE FUEL CELL

摘要

The invention relates to a contact element for an electrically conductive connection between an anode and an interconnector of a high-temperature fuel cell. The aim of the invention is to achieve a more reliable, long-term stable electrically conductive connection between an anode and the related interconnector of a high-temperature fuel cell. The contact element according to the invention is disposed between an anode and an interconnector of a high-temperature fuel cell. It is designed with two planar electrically conductive partial elements. One partial element is in contact with the anode and the other partial element is in contact with the respective interconnector. The partial elements are designed with perforations, and the partial elements are made of materials that have different thermal coefficients of expansion.
