Its function be outside input and the very big voltage of scope range of the fluctuation of voltage stabilize to the volts DS of 36V, for electrolyzer provides needed operating voltage.
The principle of work of contrary stable-pressure device is as follows: when input voltage is 3V~35.8V, after control device (Q) detects input voltage, by control signal electronic switch (K2, K3) is disconnected, (K1) closure, boost-up circuit (S) action in any case input voltage is changed, all absorbs power input and voltage is upgraded to direct current 36V and export, this voltage is supplied with electric tank working after filter capacitor (C) filtering.When input voltage is higher than 35.8V, when hanging down into 37V, control device (Q) disconnects electronic switch (K1, K3) by control signal, (K2) closure, and input voltage is directly supplied with the electrolyzer use after filtering.When input voltage is higher than 36V, control device (Q) disconnects electronic switch (K1, K2) by control signal, (K3) closure, reduction voltage circuit (J) action, in any case input voltage is changed, all reduce to direct current 36V output with the whole absorptions of power input and with voltage, this voltage after filter capacitor (C) filtering, is supplied with electric tank working equally.
The structure of electrolytic tank electrolysis groove and gas-holder as shown in Figure 4.Wherein electrolyzer by 16~20 independently electrolyzer be composed in series.Each independently electrolyzer (among the E-figure thick consider the part that line surrounded) form by cell body, electrolytic solution, anode (A) and negative electrode (K), employing barrier film (G) separates anolyte compartment (+) and cathode compartment (-), electrolytic solution is potassium hydroxide aqueous solution.Electrode materials adopts Raney's nickel or other the material with low hydrogen-evolution overpotential, when above-mentioned materials does not all possess, replaces with general steel plate or sheet plate.In order to prevent the two poles of the earth product hydrogen and oxygen mix,, in electrolyzer, the cathode and anode chamber is separated with barrier film because of the impure issuable blast of hydrogen.Barrier film is made by the inert material asbestos, for preventing that barrier film expands, gets loose in higher temperature with under the electrolytic solution effect, adds resin as strongthener in asbestos, thereby barrier film stability and physical strength aspect all are significantly improved.When direct current when the electrolyzer, with the solution interface place oxidizing reaction takes place at anode, produce oxygen, in negative electrode and solution interface place generation reduction reaction, generation hydrogen, hydrogen promptly are our needed products.
Hydrogen gas storage device is in order to guarantee the high purity of hydrogen, prevents entrained air in hydrogen and causes blasting in use phenomenon, improves the security of hydrogen, and drainage is adopted in the collection of hydrogen.In the same plane all the time for the aqueous solution that keeps electrolyzer inner anode chamber (+) and cathode compartment (+) simultaneously, and high on one side low phenomenon on one side appears in the liquid level of electrolyte that is unlikely to make because of the pressure difference of gas delivery port negative and positive two Room and influenced the works better of electrolyzer (E), need keep the pressure equilibrium of two utmost point chambers.
Gas output of the present invention and hydrogen gas storage device are as shown in Figure 4.Be followed successively by electrolyzer (E), pond (W), hydrogen gas-holder (T) from top to bottom, (p1) be the hydrogen delivery tube road, (p3) be the drainage pipeline of hydrogen gas-holder (T), (p2) be the oxygen output tube road, (p4) keep pipeline for pressure, (p5) take pipeline for hydrogen, (SW) for taking the flow controllable valve of gas.
In the connection of pipeline, the outlet side of electric tank cathode chamber (-) is connected with the upper end of hydrogen delivery tube road (p1), the lower end in hydrogen delivery tube road (p1) links to each other with the inlet mouth of hydrogen gas-holder (T), the water outlet of hydrogen gas-holder (T) links to each other with the lower end of drainage pipeline (p3), and the upper end of drainage pipeline (p3) links to each other with the bottom in pond; The outlet side of electrolyzer anode chamber (+) links to each other with the upper end of oxygen output tube road (p2), and the lower end of oxygen output tube road (p2) links to each other with the lower end that pressure is kept pipeline (p4), and the upper end that pressure is kept pipeline (p4) links to each other with the bottom in pond.
Structurally, it is 10~30cm that basin bottom will be higher than hydrogen gas-holder (T) top Δ x1, to guarantee that water can be full of whole hydrogen gas-holder (T) under the state of nature.The upper end that drainage pipeline (p3), pressure are kept pipeline (p4) all is connected with the bottom in pond, under the action of gravity of water and before electrolyzer do not start working, drainage pipeline (p3), pressure keep pipeline (p4) and hydrogen gas-holder (T) inside all is full of by water like this.The distance, delta x2 that the bottom of drainage pipeline (p3) will be lower than the air outlet, bottom in oxygen output tube road (p2) is 10~30cm, guaranteeing in collecting the process of hydrogen, being full of water in the drainage pipeline (p3) always, form potential safety hazard with oxygen mix thereby stop hydrogen to enter in the pond along drainage pipeline (p3).Hydrogen is taken the top that pipeline (p5) is connected to hydrogen gas-holder (T), can come the flow of adjustments of gas by controllable valve (SW) when the user uses.
Drainage is collected principle: the original state before electrolyzer is not being worked, the water level in pond is in the m1 position, according to the principle of communicating vessels as can be known the pressure of cathode compartment (-) and anolyte compartment (+) be barometric point, the pressure of chamber, the two poles of the earth is equilibrated, and the liquid level of electrolytic solution remains on same plane.
Under electrolyzer (E) situation that externally power supply is imported, negative electrode output hydrogen, anode output oxygen, and in the identical time, the volume of the hydrogen that negative electrode produces is the twice of oxygen volume.Wherein the oxygen that produces of anode is kept pipeline (p4) through oxygen output tube road (p2), pressure and is discharged in the atmosphere through the water of inside, pond.As can be seen from Figure 4, the liquid level in pond is h2 to the discrepancy in elevation of the air outlet of oxygen output tube road (p2), and the oxygen air outlet pressure of Xing Chenging is that normal atmosphere adds and highly is the hydraulic pressure of h2 thus; The hydrogen that is produced by negative electrode at first enters into water-filled hydrogen gas-holder (T) through hydrogen delivery tube road (p1), as can be seen from Figure 4, the pressure of hydrogen delivery port is identical with the pressure of oxygen delivery port, is equal to normal atmosphere and adds and highly be the hydraulic pressure of h2.But because hydrogen enters the hydrogen gas-holder (T) after hydrogen delivery tube road (p1) mouthful discharge, and along with the continuous discharge of hydrogen with rise to the headspace of hydrogen gas-holder (T), the water of hydrogen gas-holder (T) will be squeezed in the pond (W) through drainage pipeline (p3), thereby guarantee that the gas of collecting in the hydrogen gas-holder (T) is purified hydrogen.
When all being full of in the hydrogen gas-holder (T) by hydrogen, hydrogen gas-holder (T) internal pressure is that normal atmosphere adds and highly is the hydraulic pressure of h2, the pressure of oxygen output tube road (p2) has reached maximum value like this, but hydrogen delivery tube road (p1) pressure of hydrogen is because the lower end position of drainage pipeline (p3) is lower than the distance, delta x in oxygen output tube road (p2) is 10cm~30cm, therefore the pressure in hydrogen delivery tube road (p1) still can rise, still working as if electrolyzer (E) like this, then the pressure of cathode compartment (-) is greater than the pressure of anolyte compartment (+), like this liquid level of electrolytic solution will be not reequilibrate and the liquid level that forms the anolyte compartment is higher than the liquid level of cathode compartment, thereby the contact area that causes cathode plate and electrolytic solution reduces, thereby reduce the electrolysis current in loop, in other words, reduced the generation of hydrogen and oxygen simultaneously, along with the further rising of cathode compartment (-) pressure, cathode compartment (-) and anolyte compartment (+).
