Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a bipolar plate for a fuel cell includes two unipolar plates, which are bonded to each other in an opposite manner, and each of the two unipolar plates is a fuel unipolar plate and an oxygen unipolar plate, and is electrically connected to a membrane electrode adjacent to each other.
The unipolar plate adopts the slot structure, and the outer surface of unipolar plate is protruding to establish and forms a plurality of along the ridge 1 of longitudinal extension promptly, and each ridge 1 is along horizontal interval distribution, forms reactant runner 2 between two adjacent ridges 1, and reactant runner 2 on the outer surface of fuel unipolar plate walks the fuel, and reactant runner 2 on the outer surface of oxygen unipolar plate walks the air.
When the two unipolar plates are jointed, at least one pair of reactant flow channels 2 are jointed with each other on the joint surface. In a better embodiment, all the reactant channels 2 on the attaching surface are opposite to each other, so that they can be attached to each other to form a contact surface, thereby ensuring the firmness of the metal plate 1.
Inside the bipolar plate, i.e. between the inner surfaces of the two unipolar plates, coolant channels 3 are formed for the passage of a coolant, and as can be seen from fig. 1, the ridges 1 of the two unipolar plates face each other, and a coolant channel 3 extending in the longitudinal direction is formed between the two ridges 1, and since the ridges 1 extend in the longitudinal direction and the ridges 1 are parallel to each other, the coolant channels 3 also extend in the longitudinal direction and the coolant channels 3 are parallel to each other.
Along the longitudinal direction, a plurality of communicating grooves 10 for communicating reactant runners 2 positioned at two sides of the ridge 1 are distributed on the ridge 1 at intervals, and a plurality of turbulence protrusions 20 are distributed on the reactant runners 2 at intervals, the arranged turbulence protrusions 20 can promote the fluid (fuel or air) in the reactant runners 2 to be converted from laminar flow to turbulent flow, so that the difficulty of the fluid diffusing from the reactant runners 2 to enter a membrane electrode for reaction is greatly reduced, and in the bipolar plate and corresponding to the turbulence protrusions 20, two adjacent cooling liquid channels 3 can be communicated due to the existence of the turbulence protrusions 20, so that the cooling liquids in the two cooling liquid channels 3 are communicated, and the cooling effect is improved; meanwhile, the communicating grooves 10 on the ridge 1 communicate with the adjacent reactant flow channels 2, so that fluid in the reactant flow channels 2 can flow in the transverse direction, the flow of the fluid among the reactant flow channels 2 is increased, the nonuniformity of the fluid in the reactant flow channels 2 is reduced, the reaction in the membrane electrode is more uniform, and the service life and the performance of the cell are improved.
In the transverse direction, at least one side of two sides of the turbulence protrusion 20 is provided with a communicating groove 10, the communicating groove 10 is arranged beside the turbulence protrusion 20, the turbulence protrusion 20 and the communicating groove 10 are approximately aligned in the transverse direction without dislocation, when the turbulence protrusion 20 is touched in the fluid flowing process, the fluid can immediately flow to the reactant flow channel 2 beside the communicating groove 10, the rapid change of the fluid speed is avoided, the fluid flowing distribution is more uniform, meanwhile, the pressure drop of the whole flow field is also reduced, the power generation performance of the fuel cell is improved, and the net output power of the fuel cell is improved. Referring to fig. 3, when the fuel collides with the flow disturbing protrusion 20 during the flow, the fuel may flow in the fuel flow direction C, and referring to fig. 4, when the air collides with the flow disturbing protrusion 20 during the flow, the air may flow in the oxygen flow direction D.
As a preferred embodiment, the cross section of the communicating groove 10 and the cross section of the turbulence protrusion 20 are trapezoidal, and the top surface of the ridge 1 is designed to be 180 degrees centrosymmetric relative to the bottom surface of the reactant channel 2. Of course, the cross section can also be designed to be rectangular, the length is not more than 2mm, the width is not more than 1mm, the height is not more than 0.3mm, and the arrangement period of the communication groove 10 and the spoiler protrusion 20 can be set according to actual needs, for example, not more than 5 mm.
In a preferred embodiment, the turbulator protrusion 20 is provided with a communicating groove 10 on each side, and in a more preferred embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the outer surface of the bipolar plate is provided with a plurality of transverse flow channels 4 traversing each ridge 1, each transverse flow channel 4 is longitudinally spaced, the transverse flow channels 4 are formed by the turbulator protrusion 20 and the communicating groove 10, and the turbulator protrusion 20 and the communicating groove 10 are substantially aligned in the transverse direction without dislocation. Preferably, the spoiler protrusion 20 and the communication groove 10 have substantially the same length in the longitudinal direction.
By adopting the arrangement mode, a transverse straight channel 9 which is approximately straight is formed in the bipolar plate at the position corresponding to the transverse flow channel 4, the straight channel 9 traverses the coolant channel 3, the straight channel 9 and the coolant channel 3 together forming a coolant chamber, as shown in connection with figures 1 and 5, when the coolant inlet 5 and the coolant outlet 6 are arranged in the transverse direction, the coolant can flow in the coolant chamber in the coolant flow direction E, i.e. along the straight channels 9 and the coolant channels 3, so that the cooling liquid can be uniformly distributed and flow through the bipolar plate, thereby not only effectively taking out the reaction heat of the fuel cell from the outlet, and the cooling hydraulic pressure drops less, has avoided because of the too big shortcoming of cooling hydraulic pressure drop that the horizontal dislocation leads to, reduces the loss of external pressure supply equipment power to improve the net output power of battery.
In one possible embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the arrangement period of the communication grooves 10 is constant and the arrangement period of the turbulator protrusions 20 is constant in the longitudinal direction. In the present embodiment, the communication grooves 10 on the ridge 1 are arranged at equal intervals, and the turbulator protrusions 20 in the reactant flow channel 2 are arranged at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction. The lengths of the communication grooves 10 in the longitudinal direction are equal, the lengths of the turbulence protrusions 20 in the longitudinal direction are equal, and the lengths of the turbulence protrusions 20 and the communication grooves 10 in the longitudinal direction are also equal.
In another preferred embodiment, a non-constant arrangement period may be adopted, such that the communication grooves 10 and the spoiler protrusions 20 at the two ends of the bipolar plate in the longitudinal direction are densely arranged, and the communication grooves 10 and the spoiler protrusions 20 at the middle part are sparsely arranged, which is because:
fluid enters the flow channel area 7 through corresponding inlets (a fuel inlet 22 and an oxygen inlet 24) and flows in the corresponding flow directions (a fuel flow direction C and an oxygen flow direction D), the arrangement period of the communication groove 10 and the turbulence protrusion 20 is shorter than that of the communication groove 10 and the turbulence protrusion 20 in the middle area at the corresponding inlet and outlet, and if the ratio is 0.7-0.9, the condition that the fluid flows to the reactant flow channel 2 close to the inlet preferentially and quickly due to the fact that the velocity of the fluid just entering is too high and the like can be effectively avoided, and the flow uniformity of the fluid is affected is effectively avoided. The communicating grooves 10 and the turbulent flow bulges 20 which are positioned at the inlet and the outlet are arranged densely, so that the flow is blocked when the fluid flows in the turbulent flow bulges 20, the flow direction of the fluid is changed, micro-vortex is formed at the turbulent flow bulges 20 in the fluid flowing process, the micro-vortex drives the fluid to continue flowing longitudinally, and meanwhile, the communicating grooves 10 and the turbulent flow bulges 20 are approximately level in the transverse direction, the length of the communicating grooves 10 and the length of the turbulent flow bulges 20 in the longitudinal direction are approximately the same, the fluid can be subjected to sufficient flow diffusion in the transverse direction, so that the fluid can flow fully and uniformly in each reactant flow channel 2 in the flowing process, and further uniformly diffuse into a membrane electrode, so that the fluid can be subjected to efficient reaction, and the performances of the net output power of a fuel cell and the like are improved.
In addition, when the dimensions of the communication grooves 10 and the turbulence protrusions 20 on the two sides of the bipolar plate are set, the height of the turbulence protrusion 20 on one side of the circulating fuel is greater than that of the turbulence protrusion 20 on one side of the circulating air, and the depth of the communication groove 10 on one side of the circulating fuel is less than that of the communication groove 10 on one side of the circulating air.
At this moment, fuel is because of the protruding 20 highly great and the intercommunication recess 10 degree of depth of flow diffusion in-process, and the intercommunication recess 10 and the protruding 20 arrangement of flow disturbance of entry and exit are denser, and fuel flows in at the entry and can diffuses to the membrane electrode in effectively to fully react, and fuel flows out at the exit and can form great pressure drop, can discharge residual fuel and resultant fast effectively, avoids blockking up, makes the fuel reaction can high-efficient orderly the going on, performance such as promotion fuel cell net output power.
Meanwhile, in the air flowing and diffusing process, the turbulent flow protrusion 20 is small in height and the depth of the communication groove 10 is large, so that the air flowing sectional area is large, the pressure drop formed in the air flowing process is small, the power loss of external equipment is greatly reduced, the performances of the fuel cell such as net output power and the like are indirectly improved, the pressure difference between the air side and the fuel side of the membrane electrode can be effectively reduced, the pressure at two sides of the membrane electrode is in a small pressure difference range, and the service life of the membrane electrode is effectively prolonged.

In addition, because the fuel and the air have high concentration and rapid reaction at the inlet, the reaction heat is generated more and quickly, and the dense turbulence protrusions 20 and the communication grooves 10 are arranged at the fuel and air inlet, so that dense straight channels 9 are formed in the bipolar plate corresponding to the turbulence protrusions 20 and the communication grooves 10, the reaction heat can be effectively and quickly taken out, the fuel cell is ensured to be in a high-efficiency reaction temperature range, and the power and the service life of the fuel cell are improved.
In order to make the arrangement of the communication grooves 10 and the turbulent flow protrusions 20 at the two ends of the bipolar plate in the longitudinal direction dense, and the arrangement of the communication grooves 10 and the turbulent flow protrusions 20 at the middle part sparse, in this embodiment, the following method can be adopted:
referring to fig. 5 and 6, a flow channel region 7 is formed on the outer surface of the bipolar plate, and a ridge 1 and a reactant flow channel 2 are formed in the flow channel region 7; in the longitudinal direction, the runner section 7 includes a middle section 70 at the middle and side sections 71 at both sides; the arrangement period of the communication grooves 10 located in the side region 71 is shorter than the arrangement period of the communication grooves 10 located in the middle region 70; the arrangement period of the turbulator protrusions 20 located in the side region 71 is smaller than that of the turbulator protrusions 20 located in the middle region 70.
For the arrangement period of the communication grooves 10 and the arrangement period of the spoiler projections 20 located in the side area 71, a constant arrangement period may be adopted, or a variable arrangement period may be adopted, and when a variable arrangement period is adopted, the distance between two adjacent communication grooves 10 gradually increases and the distance between two adjacent spoiler projections 20 gradually increases along the direction from the side area 71 to the middle area 70. Meanwhile, the lengths of the communication grooves 10 and the spoiler projections 20 in the longitudinal direction may be constant or may vary, for example, as shown in fig. 6, the length of the communication grooves 10 in the longitudinal direction in the side region 71 is smaller than the length of the communication grooves 10 in the longitudinal direction in the middle region 70; the spoiler protrusion 20 located in the side region 71 has a length in the longitudinal direction smaller than that of the spoiler protrusion 20 located in the middle region 70.
For the arrangement period of the communication grooves 10 and the arrangement period of the spoiler projections 20 in the middle area 70, a constant arrangement period may be adopted, or a variable arrangement period may be adopted, and when a variable arrangement period is adopted, the distance between two adjacent communication grooves 10 is gradually reduced from the middle to both sides, and the distance between two adjacent spoiler projections 20 is gradually reduced. Meanwhile, the lengths of the communication groove 10 and the turbulent flow protrusion 20 in the longitudinal direction may be constant or may be variable, and when the lengths of the communication groove 10 and the turbulent flow protrusion 20 in the longitudinal direction are variable and different, the lengths of the communication groove 10 and the turbulent flow protrusion 20 in the longitudinal direction are gradually reduced from the middle toward both sides.

In a preferred embodiment, in both outer surfaces of the bipolar plate:
the reactant flow channel 2 on one of the outer surfaces is used for fuel to flow through, and the communication groove 10 and the turbulent flow protrusion 20 on the outer surface are configured as follows: the cross-sectional area formed between the turbulent flow protrusion 20 and the membrane electrode is not greater than the cross-sectional area formed between the communication groove 10 and the membrane electrode. Because the fuel flow is little, and the pressure drop that forms is little, consequently designs like this, under the prerequisite that guarantees that fluid can flow to both sides intercommunication recess 10 smoothly from vortex arch 20, makes vortex arch 20 height bigger as far as, on the one hand, can increase the fuel resistance, reduces or be close to the pressure of circulation of air one side as far as, on the other hand for the corresponding cell body flow area that is used for the coolant liquid to flow of vortex arch 20's the back is bigger, finally can reduce the coolant liquid pressure loss.
And the other outer surface is provided with a reactant flow channel 2 for air circulation, and the communication groove 10 and the flow disturbing protrusion 20 on the outer surface are configured as follows: the cross-sectional area formed between the turbulent flow protrusion 20 and the membrane electrode is larger than the cross-sectional area formed between the communication groove 10 and the membrane electrode. Since the air flow rate is large, the height of the spoiler projection 20 is as small as possible so as not to cause too large pressure drop (resistance); the depth of the communication groove 10 is as large as possible, so that the communication between the single flow passage and the adjacent flow passage is convenient, and the air pressure drop is reduced.

In some preferred embodiments, the fuel outlet 21 cross-sectional area is no greater than the fuel inlet 22 cross-sectional area and the oxygen outlet 23 cross-sectional area is no greater than the oxygen inlet 24 cross-sectional area, as designed. Since fuel or air is consumed and becomes smaller, the outlet is designed to be small, and a space for arranging other external connection parts such as a terminal, a positioning hole and the like can be reserved.
When the fuel is supplied, the amount of fuel supplied to the fuel inlet 22 is larger than the reaction equivalent, and the amount of coolant supplied to the coolant inlet 5 is larger than the amount of coolant to be dissipated for the reaction heat of the fuel, so that the cooling effect can be sufficiently ensured.
