Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the present invention will be further described.Should be understood that following examples are only for the present invention is described but not for limiting the scope of the invention.
Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, the humidification air supply system of fuel cell, comprises blower fan 1, also comprise humidifier 2, water pump 3, humiture probe 4 and with described blower fan 1, water pump 3, humiture 4 controllers that are connected 5 of popping one's head in; In described humidifier 2, be provided with dividing plate 6 and be divided into the upper and lower part not communicating, described humidifier 2 tops form air inlet passage 7, one sides and are connected by pipeline with described blower fan 1, and opposite side is connected with the air inlet pipeline of fuel cell pile 9; The bottom of described humidifier 2 forms exhaust emissions passage 8, one sides and is connected by pipeline with the gas outlet of fuel cell pile 9, and opposite side is directly emptying; Described humiture probe 4 is arranged on the pipeline that described humidifier 2 tops are connected with the air inlet of fuel cell pile 9, the import of described water pump 3 is connected with the exhaust emissions passage 8 that the bottom of described humidifier 2 forms, the outlet of described water pump 3 connects with the humidification pipeline 11 of air inlet passage 7 tops that are arranged on described humidifier 2 tops formations, and described humidification pipeline 11 is provided with spray head 12 towards humidifier 2 internal direction.When system works, by water pump 3, the aqueous water in tail gas in exhaust emissions passage 8 is pumped to humidification pipeline 11, and passed through spray head 12 atomizing sprays to air inlet passage 7, give the gas humidification that enters fuel cell pile 9.Simplifying humidification system, having reduced system energy consumption, when further having improved fuel cell system operating efficiency, realize effective recovery of moisture in fuel cell pile tail gas.
In the present embodiment, controller 5 is popped one's head in and 4 is detected temperature, the humidity of gas that enters fuel cell pile 9 by humiture, when temperature, humidity lower than set lower limit time, open water pump 3 and extract aqueous water; When temperature, humidity higher than set higher limit time, water pump 3 stops pumping.Humiture probe 4 adopts SHT75 digital temperature-humidity sensor, this Temperature Humidity Sensor possesses high accuracy and response time (moisture measurement precision: ± 1.8%RH rapidly, temperature measurement accuracy: ± 0.3 DEG C, response time: <8s, low-power consumption (typ. 30 μ W)), thus the stability of system of the present invention ensured.
As shown in Figure 2, described humidifier 2 is also provided with vertical vacuum heat-pipe 13 arranged side by side, utilizes tail gas heat quantity that fuel cell pile 9 discharges to heat and make in atomized water that spray head 12 sprays not the part of atomization completely further vaporize entering the gas of fuel cell pile 9 by heat exchange; The reduction of exhaust temperature simultaneously is further liquefied the moisture in tail gas, produces more aqueous water, makes the humidification to entering fuel cell pile 9 gases more abundant, effective.In addition, because vacuum heat-pipe 13 comes to the heat of the gas heating use that enters fuel cell pile 9 heat that fuel cell pack 9 is discharged, the exhaust temperature that the temperature that guarantee is heated is discharged lower than this fuel cell pack 9, thereby there will not be and heat too highly, ensured the fail safe of system works of the present invention.
The below of the exhaust emissions passage 8 that in the present embodiment, described humidifier 2 bottoms form is provided with aqua storage tank 14.By being set, aqua storage tank 14 collects the aqueous water in exhaust emissions passage 8, make steam in the tail gas of fuel cell pile discharge separate more thorough, further make water pump 3 pump to the aqueous water of humidification pipeline 11 and can not mix steam and other impurity, better ensure spraying effect, thereby better ensured the humidification effect of system of the present invention.
In the present embodiment, before the import of described blower fan 1, be provided with filter 10, filter out the impurity such as dust in gas, the gas purity reacting that enters fuel cell pile 9 is improved, thereby ensured the operating efficiency of fuel cell pile.
