TEA architecture and scaling logic for SOEC/SOFC systems, electrochemical reactors, and high-temperature manufacturing lines. The emphasis is on manufacturability, cost formation, and early-stage uncertainty framing.
Scope of Work
- SOEC/SOFC stack manufacturing TEA
- Tape casting, coating, sintering, and interconnect fabrication modeling
- High-temperature reactor TEA structures
- Thermal-cycle and degradation considerations
- Unit-operation scaling theory and throughput modeling
Modeling Approach
-
Process Flow Modeling Structured definition of material flows, thermal cycles, and energy profiles across unit operations.
-
Cost Formation Separating material, energy, labor, and equipment cost formation in early-stage manufacturing pathways.
-
Uncertainty & Risk Analysis Scenario-based framing around degradation, yield loss, and material-property variability.
-
Scaling Frameworks Throughput-driven logic that connects equipment capacity to plant-level output.
