    Abstract: A system for a solid oxide fuel cell stack disposed between and in contact with a fixed top compression plate and a movable compression plate. At least one tension rod can be inserted through an opening on a movable locking plate, wherein the top end of the tension rod is connected to the bottom of the movable compression plate and the bottom end of the tension rod is connected to a fixed bottom compression plate. At least one nut can be used in conjunction each tension rod and disposed below the movable locking plate to secure the movable locking plate in position. Additionally, at least one spring can be disposed around the at least one tension rod and connected to the bottom of the movable compression plate and the top of the fixed bottom compression plate. Finally, at least one pneumatic cylinder can be in contact with the bottom of the movable locking plate and the fixed bottom compression plate.

    Abstract: A device comprising a first solid oxide fuel cell and a second solid oxide fuel cell. The first solid oxide fuel cell comprises a first anode, a first cathode and a first electrolyte, wherein the first electrolyte is positioned between and connected to the first anode and the first cathode. The second solid oxide fuel cell comprises a second anode, a second cathode and a second electrolyte, wherein the second electrolyte is positioned between and connected to the second anode and the second cathode. In this device the cathode distance between the first cathode and the second cathode is less than the anode distance between the first anode and the second anode.

    Abstract: A fuel cell stack is in contact and below a top compression plate and in contact and above a bottom compression plate. The top compression plate and the bottom compression plate are flat and rigid. A top compression device is above the top compression plate, wherein the top compression device applies a downward vertical force onto the top compression plate which applies a downward vertical force onto the fuel cell stack. An optional bottom compression device is below the bottom compression plate, wherein the bottom compression device applies an upward vertical force onto the bottom compression plate which applies an upward vertical force onto the fuel cell stack.
