Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of operating a high temperature fuel cell system containing a plurality of fuel cell stacks includes operating one or more of the plurality of fuel cell stacks at a first output power while operating another one or more of the plurality of the fuel cell stacks at a second output power different from the first output power.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of operating a high temperature fuel cell system comprising fuel cell stacks divided into at least a first group and a second group, each group including at least one of the fuel cell stacks, the method comprising: outputting substantially the same output power from the first and second groups, such that the first and second groups collectively output a predetermined output power; and increasing a power output of the first group to a first output…
