The alkali metal thermal to electric converter (AMTEC) is a device for the direct conversion of heat to electrical power. Operating hot-side temperatures of AMTEC cells are well compatible with those of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), so that the stacks of the SOFC can be directly coupled to hot-side of the AMTEC cells. The AMTEC cells would produce electrical power from released heat of the SOFC, as well as control the SOFC operating temperatures by modulating current of the AMTEC cell. A new honeycomb type AMTEC cell is discussed in this paper. The cell uses advanced beta"-alumina solid electrolyte (BASE) configurations to improve the device performance over the conventional tube BASE systems. Expected power densities and efficiencies were calculated. The influence of temperature differences between heat source and anode side electrode is also discussed for vaper-fed type and vaper-vaper-fed type cells.
