Zusammenfassung:A fuel cell system comprises a fuel cell stack comprising a plurality of fuel cells and at least one shorted solid oxide fuel cell in which the cell anode is electrically connected to the cell cathode. In another system, the at least one shorted solid oxide fuel cell is located downstream from a fuel cell stack. The at least one shorted fuel cell is positioned to receive the anode exhaust stream from at least some of the plurality of fuel cells of the fuel cell stack.
