Description

A kind of humidifying technology and humidification system that is used for large power PEM fuel battery test platform
Technical field
The present invention relates to fuel cell technology, relate in particular to a kind of humidifying technology and humidification system that is used for large power PEM fuel battery test platform.
Background technology
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells be a kind of can with hydrogen-rich fuel and oxidant continuous high-efficient change into the device of electric energy.The three in one membreane electrode that Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells is assembled into by scribbling Catalytic Layer respectively in proton film both sides (Membrane Electrode Assembly, MEA), the flow-field plate of reacting gas fuel-side, air side flow-field plate form.Its core component is a three in one membreane electrode, and its structure is: middle is proton exchange membrane, and both sides scribble cathode catalysis layer and anode catalyst layer respectively, and outermost has gas diffusion layers.
During Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells work, fuel in anode-catalyzed laminar surface generation electrochemical reaction, loses electronics by anode gas diffusion layer, forms proton (H +), H +Can pass through proton exchange membrane, arrive negative electrode one side of membrane electrode.Meanwhile, the gas that contains oxidant reacts at cathode catalysis laminar surface and the proton that sees through the proton film by cathode diffusion layer, generates water.
In the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells that adopts hydrogen, air to act as a fuel, the equation of anode reaction and cathode reaction is:
Anode reaction H 2→ 2H ++ 2e
Cathode reaction O 2+ 4H ++ 4e → 2H 2O
Used proton exchange membrane in the membrane electrode of fuel batter with proton exchange film needs hydrone and exists in the battery operation process at present, and it is preserved moisture.Because have only the proton of aquation just can freely pass proton exchange membrane, arrive the cloudy end of electrode from the electrode oedoeagus and participate in electrochemical reaction.Otherwise, when the air of a large amount of dryings to the fuel cell supply, easily the hydrone in the proton exchange membrane is taken away when they leave, cause proton can't pass proton exchange membrane, the electrode internal resistance sharply increases, battery performance sharply descends.So the purpose of proton exchange membrane humidification is exactly the ability that makes proton exchange membrane maintenance transmission proton in the fuel cell, the humidification deficiency, the proton exchange membrane transmittability is poor, influences battery performance; Humidification is undue, can flood electrode, also can cause the decline of battery performance simultaneously.Therefore, humidification is the key technology of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells.
The mode that is applied to the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells humidification at present mainly contains two classes:
1, outer humidification: humidification device separates with fuel battery, and at the outside self-existent humidification device of fuel battery.Mainly directly outside this, collide the purpose that the hydrone that impels the GAS ABSORPTION vaporization reaches humidified gas with hydrone by fully mixing in the humidifying device by hydrogen gas or air gas.
2, interior humidification: interior humidifying device is the part that fuel battery is formed.Fuel battery is divided into two parts, and a part is interior humidification section, and another part is the active active section of battery.Interior humidification section is made of humidification baffler and humidification electrode, and the active active section of battery is made of baffler and membrane electrode.The humidification electrode often can be carried out the film that hydrone freely exchanges and formed by a kind of, this film can allow deionized water flow on one side of film, and allow fuel gas or oxidant gas, flow as the another side of air at film, film can be separated fuel gas or air and liquid water molecules, but hydrone can pass freely through film again and enter in fuel gas or the air and go, and reaches the humidifying purpose.
Summary of the invention
The present invention proposes a kind of humidifying technology of high power fuel cell testboard and design of humidification system of being used for.In order to reduce the power demand of large test platform, the heat that rationally utilizes fuel cell and generated, reduce the consumption of coolant and to the thermal diffusion of testboard surrounding enviroment, the reactant gas that the heat transferred that this patent has proposed to adopt two-stage or multi-stage heat exchanger system that fuel cell is generated enters fuel cell.In order to improve the gas-liquid mass transfer ability of humidification system, this patent has proposed to adopt and the reverse flow spray column of high efficiency packing has been housed as main humidifying equipment.Accurately the temperature (temperature of deionized water) of control spray medium can be guaranteed the temperature of humidifying and the saturation of steam.Enter the back system for fear of drop, this patent has proposed to be furnished with the foam-removing system of accurate temperature control, guarantees to enter in the humidified gas of superheater not have any drop.In order to control the relative humidity of the reactant gas that enters fuel cell pile, this patent has proposed to have the superheater of outer heater and efficient heat transfer filler assembly, by accurate control to superheater temperature, the relative humidity that enters the fuel cell pile reactant gas can be controlled at ± 2% in, temperature is controlled at ± 0.1 ℃ in, for the test of fuel cell provides good experiment condition.
