In the present work a three-dimensional numerical model of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is examined. The calculations are performed for geometry similar to the one used earlier by Hirano. Obtained numerical results for different heat and electric coefficients allows to emphasise the fact, how big are the differences between assumed thermodynamics properties for SOFC modeling.
