- This paper reports the heat fluid dynamics of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell stack for use in an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. The work was supported by the FCHJU (Grant :278629),and conducted in collaboration with HyGear Fuel Cell Systems Netherlands. The study was the first of its kind applied to UAV the work resulted in the highest power to weight ratio for a fuel cell stack to date. The concepts developed are now being utilised by Adelan, a world leading microtubular SOFC developer.
