Abstract

In this work, a natural gas boiler is compared with a system basedon the combination of a solid oxide fuel cell with a heat pump from an exergetic point of view. The objective of both systems is to achieve the same effect: heating a home. The results of the analysis strongly favor the alternative based on the fuel cell and heat pump.
