Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC) rely on advanced plate heat exchangers to manage extreme temperatures of up to 700 °C. In this episode of Hyfindr Tech Talks, Stephan Pflugfelder (smk – systeme metall kunststoff) joins Steven Oji to explain how heat exchangers enable efficiency, reliability, and safety in hydrogen fuel cell systems.
You’ll discover:
The difference between SOFC and SOEC technology
How hydrogen heat exchangers stabilize fuel cell stacks
Engineering challenges such as pressure drop, gas flow, and thermomechanical stress
Why SOFC systems are ideal for continuous 24/7 operation
The future of hydrogen heat exchanger design
