Abstract

The invention provides a method for rapidly recovering the performance of a vehicle fuel cell system, which comprises the following steps: normally starting the fuel cell system, increasing the load until the output current of the fuel cell stack reaches the rated current value, stopping supplying gas to the cathode inlet of the fuel cell stack until the single-chip voltage of the fuel cell stack reaches the first set voltage value, disconnecting the load, utilizing an external discharge resistor to enable the single-chip voltage of the fuel cell stack to reach the second set voltage value, and recovering gas supply to the cathode inlet of the fuel cell stack until the performance of the fuel cell stack is recovered. The invention can improve the temperature of the galvanic pile and wet the membrane electrode which is dried due to storage, thereby greatly reducing the time for activating the galvanic pile to the best performance.

Description

Method for rapidly recovering performance of vehicle fuel cell system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a method for rapidly recovering the performance of a vehicle fuel cell system.
Background
The proton exchange membrane fuel cell pile is a device for directly converting electrochemical energy into electric energy, has the advantages of high efficiency, cleanness and safety, is widely applied to engine systems of passenger vehicles or commercial vehicles at present, and has wide development prospect.
In order to prevent the residual moisture inside the pem fuel cell stack from freezing due to too low temperature, thereby causing irreversible damage to the bipolar plates and the membrane electrodes, the fuel cell system requires a drying process inside the stack before storage. The membrane material used by the proton exchange membrane fuel cell membrane electrode is a perfluorosulfonic acid membrane, and the conductivity of the dried and dehydrated perfluorosulfonic acid ion resin is greatly reduced, so that the performance of the galvanic pile is greatly reduced.
In order to restore the performance of the fuel cell stack after long-time storage to the initial optimal performance, activation treatment needs to be performed on the fuel cell stack, that is, the performance is restored by normally operating the fuel cell stack, but the process needs a long time and the performance restoration is slow, so that the experience of a motor vehicle using a fuel cell system as an engine is not good, and the SOC of a power battery of the motor vehicle is too high when the performance of the engine of the fuel cell is not restored.

Detailed Description
For a more clear understanding of the technical features, objects and effects of the present invention, embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for rapidly recovering performance of a fuel cell system for a vehicle.
A method for rapidly recovering performance of a fuel cell system for a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
s1, starting the fuel cell system normally;
s2, carrying up until the output current of the fuel cell stack reaches a rated current value; the load increase is to increase the output power of the fuel cell;
s3, stopping supplying gas to the cathode inlet of the fuel cell stack until the single-chip voltage of the fuel cell stack reaches 0.2V;
s4, disconnecting the load, and enabling the single-chip voltage of the fuel cell stack to reach 0V by using an external discharge resistor (150 omega);
and S5, the gas supply to the cathode inlet of the fuel cell stack is resumed until the performance of the fuel cell stack is recovered.
After the fuel cell engine is normally started, the fuel cell engine is quickly loaded to raise the current to the rated current, at the moment, the temperature of the fuel cell stack is too low, the water content of the membrane electrode is too low, the performance of the stack is poor, the gas supply of the cathode needs to be controlled to be cut off, the cathode is short of gas due to the fact that the power is still requested outside the fuel cell, the voltage of the stack can be quickly reduced, when the voltage is reduced to 0.2V of a single chip, the load is disconnected, the voltage is continuously pulled to 0V by using an external discharge resistor, at the moment, the gas supply of the cathode is recovered, and the system is raised to the rated current after being started. In the process, due to the fact that the cathode is in short gas due to gas failure of the cathode, anode gas flees to the cathode, a large amount of heat is generated through direct reaction, the temperature of the galvanic pile is increased, and meanwhile water generated through reaction is gathered on the surface of the membrane to wet the membrane electrode, so that the purpose of improving the performance of the galvanic pile is achieved.
The invention has the beneficial effects that: the membrane electrode dried due to storage is wetted while the temperature of the galvanic pile is increased, so that the time for activating the galvanic pile to the optimal performance is greatly reduced, and the method is specifically embodied as follows:
1. by adopting the mode of cutting off the cathode gas, the surface of the proton exchange membrane of the membrane electrode generates a large amount of heat in a short time and gathers a large amount of water, thereby improving the temperature of the galvanic pile, wetting the membrane electrode dried due to storage and recovering the performance of the galvanic pile.
2. Compared with the mode of directly starting the activated galvanic pile, the mode of cutting off the cathode gas greatly reduces the time of activating the galvanic pile to the optimal performance.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like that fall within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included therein.
