Methods and apparatus for assembling solid oxide fuel cells

摘要

A fuel cell (12) comprises at least one hollow manifold (20), an anode (82), an electrolyte (84), and a cathode (86). The at least one hollow manifold comprises a wall that defines a chamber therein. At least one opening extends through the manifold wall and is in flow communication with the chamber. The anode is formed on the manifold wall. The electrolyte is deposited on the anode, and the cathode is deposited on the electrolyte.
