In practical application, the fuel cell has the advantages of high starting speed, stable output electric energy, strong environment adaptability, energy conservation and environmental protection, and the only byproduct generated by electrochemical reaction, namely purified water, completely avoids the discharge of lead, sulfuric acid and other acidic pollutants. In consideration of the characteristics of load randomness and fluctuation, the power generation of the fuel cell faces the working conditions of frequent start-stop, low-load/overload operation and the like, and the frequent start-stop can cause the start-stop high potential to cause the thinning of the cathode catalyst layer, so that the performance of the fuel cell is attenuated. Meanwhile, the mechanical damage of the membrane electrode is caused by the expansion and shrinkage accompanying the low-temperature circulation in the starting and stopping process, and particularly when the starting is carried out at a temperature lower than zero degree, the generated water can be frozen in the fuel cell due to the fact that the product of the fuel cell is water, reaction gas is prevented from reaching the surface of the catalyst, and the starting success rate and the starting speed are influenced. In addition, a large number of load-changing working conditions easily cause the cyclic changes of physical quantities such as voltage, current, temperature, humidity and the like of the fuel cell, influence substances, structures and processes in the fuel cell, especially when the fuel cell is operated at low load, the fuel cell can be operated at high potential, Pt in a cathode catalyst layer is easily dissolved and deposited, and the attenuation is accelerated. Therefore, the high potential during starting is quickly reduced or avoided, the high potential during operation is limited as much as possible, and the service life of the system can be effectively prolonged.

Step S112: and when the ambient temperature is greater than the first temperature threshold value, starting the cooling circulating water pump.
Step S122: and when the ambient temperature is not greater than the first temperature threshold value, starting the electric heating device, starting the cooling circulating water pump, starting the fuel cell stack, and returning to the step S5.
In the embodiment of the invention, when the environmental temperature is not greater than the first temperature threshold, which indicates that the fuel cell cannot be normally started at this time, the cooling water needs to be heated, the electric heating device is started, then the cooling circulating water pump is started, the fuel cell stack is started, and the step of judging whether the voltage of the fuel cell stack reaches the preset voltage set value is returned.
Specifically, in one embodiment, after the electric heating device is started, the control method of the fuel cell power generation system specifically further includes the steps of:
step S405: the tank temperature of the cooling water tank is monitored. In the embodiment of the invention, after the electric heating device is started, the temperature of the water tank of the cooling water tank needs to be monitored, the controller controls the electric heating device, and the high potential is started correspondingly by controlling the switching-in and switching-out of the electric heating device; and the water in the water tank is heated, the water entering the galvanic pile is heated, and the air and the hydrogen at the inlet of the galvanic pile are heated through the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger, so that the starting speed is accelerated.
Step S415: and when the temperature of the water tank is greater than the second temperature threshold, performing accelerated adjustment on the cooling circulating water pump, acquiring the time for the accelerated adjustment of the cooling circulating water pump, returning to the step of judging whether the voltage of the fuel cell stack reaches a preset voltage set value or not until the temperature of the water tank is not greater than the second temperature threshold, or turning off the electric heating device until the time reaches the preset time threshold.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second preset temperature may also be set according to actual requirements and system performance, and the preset time threshold is only illustrated as 3 seconds in the embodiment of the present invention, and may be set according to actual system requirements in practical applications, which is not limited to this.
Specifically, in an embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the method for controlling a fuel cell power generation system further includes:

Illustratively, if the minimum cell voltage is not less than 0.2V, the real-time monitoring of the cell voltages in the fuel cell stack is continued until the minimum cell voltage among the cell voltages is judged to be less than the second voltage threshold. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, only the second voltage threshold is illustrated as 0.2V, and the second voltage threshold may be adjusted according to actual requirements in practical applications, which is not limited to the present invention.
