This study is based on reversible Solid Oxide Cells (rSOCs) numerical and experimental analysis. To increase the cell application and accommodate a variety of excellent materials to be adopted in this innovation, the operating temperatures has to be lowered. Porosity control is used to substitute the high operating temperatures. Pretreatment and sintering procedures are used to adjust a button cell porosity. Experimental results include property measurements for porosity and ionic conductivity to understand the cell performance. A cell sintered at 1400 degrees C with 36.2% porosity renders superior results compared to the other conditions. Improved performance has been noted on 40-30% porosity decrease. COMSOL Multiphysics is used to simulate the experimental procedures. Butler-Volmer equation is implemented to predict the cell current density distribution, and Modified Stefan-Maxwell diffusion model incorporating Knudsen diffusion equation has been used for multicomponent diffusion.
