Abstract:
The invention relates to the production or a heat-transfer gas circuit for the heat management/regulation of the stack of an HTE reactor or an SOFC fuel cell by removing certain cells in certain areas of the stack in order to replace them with electrical contact elements that allow the heat transfer gas to pass through.

Claim (Index 4):
The high-temperature electrolysis reactor of  claim 1 , wherein the interconnectors of the electrochemical stages each consist of a device consisting of three flat metal sheets, elongated along two axes of symmetry (X, Y) orthogonal to one another, one of the end metal sheets being configured to come into mechanical contact with the plane of a cathode of an individual cell and the other of the end metal sheets being configured to come into mechanical contact with the plane of an anode of an adjacent individual cell, in which device:\n the central parts of the central metal sheet and of one of the end metal sheets, referred to as first end metal sheet, are not pierced, while the central part of the other end metal sheet, referred to as second end metal sheet, is pierced, each of the three flat metal sheets is pierced, at the periphery of the central part thereof, with six ports, the first to fourth ports of each metal sheet being elongated over a length corresponding to a portion of the length of the central part along one of the axes X of the metal sheets and being distributed in pairs on either side of said axis X, while the fifth and sixth ports are elongated over a length corresponding substantially to the length of the central part along the other of the axes Y, the first end metal sheet also comprises a seventh and an eighth port arranged symmetrically on either side of the axis X, inside its first to fourth ports, and elongated over a length corresponding substantially to the length of the central part along the axis X. the second of the end metal sheets also comprises a seventh and an eighth port arranged symmetrically on either side of the axis Y respectively, its fifth and its sixth port, and elongated over a length corresponding substantially to the length of the central part along said axis Y, and the first, third, fifth and sixth ports of the central metal sheet are widened relative respectively to the first, third, fifth and sixth ports of each end metal sheet, while the second and fourth ports of the three metal sheets are of substantially identical dimensions to one another. all the widened ports of the central metal sheet comprise, in their widened part, tongues of metal sheets spaced apart from one another, firming a comb, each of the slits defined between the edge of a widened slit and a tongue or between two consecutive tongues opening onto one of the inner ports of the first or second end metal sheet, the three metal sheets are laminated and assembled together such that: the tongues of metal sheets form spacers between first and second end metal sheets, respectively, between the first and seventh ports of the first end metal sheet, between the third and eighth ports of the first end metal sheet, between the fifth and seventh ports of the second end metal sheet, and between the sixth and eighth ports of the second end metal sheet, each of the first to sixth ports of one of the three metal sheets is individually in fluid communication respectively with one of the corresponding first to sixth ports of the two other metal sheets, the first or alternatively the second port of the first end metal sheet is in fluid communication with the seventh port of the first end metal sheet via the slits the first widened port of the central metal sheet, the third or alternatively the fourth port of the first end metal sheet is in fluid communication with the eighth port of the first end metal sheet via the slits of the third widened port of the central metal sheet, the fifth and the seventh ports of the second end metal sheet are in fluid communication via the slits of the fifth widened port of the central metal sheet, and the sixth and the eighth ports of the second end metal sheet are in fluid communication via the slits of the sixth widened port of the central metal sheet.
