Exergy and environmental assessments of the performance of a molten carbonate fuel cell cogeneration plant: External steam reforming against internal steam reforming

Two different configurations of a system including a cogeneration plant based on molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) with internal steam reforming (IR-MCFC) and external steam reforming (ER-MCFC) for producing power and hot water are modeled and investigated thermodynamically. Energetic, exergetic and...
