Abstract

A cell module for a solid oxide fuel cell includes a cell substrate (1) having gas permeability, one electrode (2) among a fuel electrode and an air electrode formed on the cell substrate, a solid electrolyte (3) formed on the one electrode, and the other electrode (4) formed on the solid electrolyte, wherein in the case of counter-flow of the fuel gas and the oxidant gas flow, the gas permeability of a central portion (1b) of the cell substrate in the gas flow direction is lower than the gas permeability of an inlet portion (1a) and an outlet portion (1c) of the cell substrate.
