Abstract
The present invention provides a large-scale solid oxide fuel cell stack and a method of manufacturing the stack. In the present invention, a segmented cell tube () is formed in such a way that unit cells connected to each other are formed on a cylindrical or flat tubular porous support (). A reformer tube () is configured such that reforming catalyst () is provided in a support (). The cell tube and the reformer tube are disposed at positions spaced apart from each other such that an air passage is formed on the outer surface of the reformer tube. A cell module () is formed by arranging the tubes such that a fuel gas flow passage is formed between the tubes. The solid oxide fuel cell stack is formed by integrating cell modules with each other.
