Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Electrochemical Performance of La0.6sr0.4co0.2fe0.8o3-Ce0.9gd0.1o2 Composite Sofc Cathodes Fabricated by Electrocatalyst And/Or Electrocatalyst-Ionic Conductor Infiltration(Springer, 2019) Sındıraç, Can; Büyükaksoy, Aligül; Akkurt, SedatInfiltration of electrocatalyst precursor solutions into previously sintered porous ionic conductor scaffolds has been used recently as an alternative method to the conventional co-sintering route to fabricate electrocatalyst-ionic conductor composites for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) cathode applications. However, the aqueous nitrate solutions generally used to perform the infiltration process results in electrocatalyst precipitates that are disconnected from each other, yielding poor electrode performance. In this work, polymeric electrocatalyst (La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3-LSCF) precursors that produce interconnected thin films upon heat treatment were used to infiltrate porous ionic conductor Ce0.9Gd0.1O2-delta (GDC) scaffolds to overcome these issues. In addition, for the first time in the literature, a mixture of LSCF and GDC polymeric precursors, which would yield LSCF-GDC nanocomposite coatings on the grains of the porous GDC scaffold were used as the infiltration solution. Thus, further enhancement of the electrocatalyst/ionic conductor interfacial area and achievement of improved electrode performance was aimed. As a result of the optimization studies, the lowest measured area specific polarization resistance (ASR(cathode)) values of 0.47 and 0.73 omega.cm(2) were obtained for polymeric LSCF+GDC and LSCF precursor infiltrations respectively at 700 degrees C, in air. In addition, LSCF+GDC infiltration yielded electrodes with much improved long-term stability in comparison to those obtained by LSCF infiltration.

An implicit finite-difference scheme together with multivariate Newton's method was employed to solve the equation numerically. The simulation results showed that microtopography and roughness were the dominant factors causing significant spatial variations in sediment concentration. If the spatially varying microtopography was replaced by an average constant slope, the result was an overestimation of the sediment load. On the other hand, when the spatially varying roughness was replaced by the average roughness and the spatially varying infiltration rate by the average infiltration rate, the sediment discharge was not significantly affected. The sedimentograph reached an equilibrium much sooner when a constant infiltration rate was substituted for the time-varying infiltration rate.Article Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 38Modeling Two-Dimensional Erosion Process Over Infiltrating Surfaces(American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2001) Tayfur, GökmenThe physics-based modeling of the rainfall-runoff induced erosion process is accomplished. The existing one-dimensional erosion process equations are extended to two dimensions and kinematic wave approximation is used. The model assumes that suspended sediment does not affect flow dynamics. The model considers the effect of flow depth plus loose soil depth on soil detachment. Sensitivity analysis results indicate that the effects of the soil erodibility coefficient (η) and exponent (k1) on sediment discharges are quite pronounced. On steep slopes, the effect of flow depth plus loose soil depth on sediment discharge is insignificant.
