Description

Measurement and control platform and method for fuel cell air supply loop characteristics
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of application of hydrogen fuel cells, and relates to a measurement and control platform for chemical engineering and control characteristics of a cathode air supply loop of a fuel cell and a test method thereof.
Background
Proper operation of the fuel cell requires the cathode to provide excess oxygen, and if insufficient oxygen is available, the performance and life of the fuel cell can be greatly affected. The air supply system mainly provides oxygen required by the reaction for the cathode of the fuel cell, and ensures that the cathode has proper oxygen flow, oxygen pressure and proper humidity. In order to improve the performance of the fuel cell and ensure that the overall output net power of the fuel cell is optimal, an efficient utilization scheme of an air supply system needs to be designed.
The power consumption of the air system accounts for the most part of the power consumption of the auxiliary components of the whole fuel cell, and in order to ensure that the whole fuel cell system works in the optimal state, the air flow and the pressure of the air system need to be controlled. The control of the air flow and pressure mainly lies in the control of the air compressor and the exhaust end valve of the air supply system, and the cathode is ensured to be in the optimal working state.
However, in an actual fuel cell system, the air supply system has strong nonlinearity and strong parameter coupling, so that the control of the air supply system is difficult. This is mainly based on the following factors:
first, the pressure control of the air circuit is directly related to the pressure difference balance between the anode and cathode, which causes the damage of the stack when the pressure difference between the anode and cathode exceeds the tolerance limit of the proton exchange membrane.
Secondly, the air supply system is a large hysteresis system, and when the load current of the electric pile is disturbed, the response speed of the air flow and the pressure is slow, so that the electric pile is easy to be starved by oxygen, the performance of the electric pile is reduced, and the electric pile is even damaged.
Thirdly, in the practical application process, different air compression devices can be selected for the electric pile with different power requirements, and the performance difference of the air compression devices can cause the difference of the practical control schemes.
Fourthly, if the volume, the pipe diameter and the valve diameter of the chemical part are not matched, the flow and the pressure of the cathode can not be stabilized through control, and the air supply system is frequently adjusted.
Fifthly, the proper back pressure of the whole fuel system can improve the current density of the cell, and the research on the pressure of the air system entering and exiting the stack under the back pressure condition has great significance on the control of the whole system.
