Background
When the working temperature of the fuel cell is lower, the activation voltage is higher, so that the output voltage is lower, and the power is reduced under the same current. Meanwhile, when the temperature is low, the water brought out by the exhaust becomes less, and the flooding phenomenon can be caused. Therefore, when the temperature of the fuel cell is low, the output power of the fuel cell needs to be limited to reduce the generated water and avoid flooding.
At low temperatures, the load cannot be directly increased because the fuel cell has a slow reaction rate and can generate less electricity, and the load is suddenly forced to increase, so that the fuel cell can generate side reactions such as water electrolysis and carbon corrosion in sequence when the load cannot be satisfied.
When the fuel cell works, the temperature inside the galvanic pile is required to be uniform so as to ensure that the reaction inside the galvanic pile is uniformly carried out, thus having great benefits of reducing the internal corrosion of the fuel cell and prolonging the service life of the fuel cell. The temperature difference of cooling liquid at the inlet and the outlet of a fuel cell system is generally required to be less than or equal to 10 ℃, and some cell stack systems are even required to be less than or equal to 5 ℃.
In order to increase the temperature rise rate of the fuel cell system at low temperature, an auxiliary PTC heating method is generally used. In order to reduce the temperature difference of the system at high temperature, a method of controlling the rotation speed of the water pump by using the temperature difference of the inlet and the outlet is generally adopted. For example, when the temperature difference between the inlet and the outlet is large, the rotating speed of the water pump is high.
