The invention relates to a solid electrolyte high-temperature fuel cell. Gas is taken past the anode from a gas supply via a gas channel. A corresponding airsupply takes air over the cathode. There is also a discharge pipe for the exhaust gas. According to the invention, the solid electrolyte element consists of a vertical open-topped, closed-bottomed hollow body (2) of ceramic electrolyte material. The anode (3) is fitted on the inner surface of the hollow body and the cathode (8) on its outer surface. Through the hollow body passes the gas channel which is also the anode chamber (4). It is supplied from a gas inlet (1a) opening in or on the bottom of the hollow body. On the cathode side the hollow body is surrounded by and spaced from a further closed element (5) of highly heat-resistant material from beneath as far as the air inlet aperture. The space thus created forms the air channel (7) and the cathode chamber at the same time. The gas-air mixture leaving the gas and air channel is taken upwards from the component to the exhaust gas line in this arrangement. |
