Electrochemical Dissociation of Water Vapor in Solid Oxide Electrolyte Cells

Following the thermodynamic and electrochemical description of high‐temperature electrolytic dissociation of water vapor discussed in Part I , this paper is concerned with materials problems, design, and fabrication of both single‐cell and multicell devices. Oxygen anodes and depolarized anodes are both considered, and it is concluded that the most feasible system is that employing discontinuous electrolyte segments and depolarized anodes.
