Description

Fuel cell system with bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balance function
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and particularly relates to a fuel cell system with a bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balancing function.
Background
The fuel cell has the characteristics of high energy conversion efficiency, low working temperature, low noise, zero pollution and the like, and has a tendency of explosive development in recent years. The fuel cell is an electrochemical reaction device which directly converts chemical energy into electric energy through electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen, generally comprises a fuel cell stack, a gas transmission and monitoring system, a tail gas system, a heat dissipation system, a control system, a hydrogen safety system, an auxiliary power supply and an electric energy output system, and can be used in the scenes of vehicles, aerospace, fixed power stations, underwater devices and the like.
In recent years, key materials of fuel cells have great breakthrough, so that the performance of fuel cell stacks is improved quickly, and the power density and the service life of the stacks are continuously new and high. However, many system integrators have found that the performance and life of the stack is greatly compromised when the stack is integrated into a fuel cell system, one of the most important reasons being stack performance consistency and flow field drainage problems caused directly or indirectly by stack pressure management problems. In order to reduce the proton conduction resistance and the water diffusion performance, the thickness of a proton exchange membrane serving as a core material of a galvanic pile is thinner and thinner, so that an obvious effect is brought to the performance improvement of the galvanic pile to a certain extent, but the thickness reduction of the proton exchange membrane also brings a great problem to the pressure management of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile, and the pressure difference between two sides of the membrane is generally required to be not more than 35 kPa. Particularly, when the galvanic pile develops towards the direction of high power density, the drainage performance and the back pressure capability of the galvanic pile are required to be good, so that the problems of the single-side flow field pressure difference of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile, the membrane pressure difference of the double sides of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile and the back pressure of the galvanic pile are interwoven into a whole. When the differential pressure of the single-side flow field of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile is low, the operation window of the differential pressure of the two sides of the cathode and the anode membrane is widened, and the control difficulty of the differential pressure of the two sides of the membrane is reduced, but the drainage performance of the flow field is poor when the differential pressure of the single-side flow field of the cathode and the anode is low, and local flooding is easily caused; when the differential pressure of a flow field on one side of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile is higher, the drainage capability of the flow fields on two sides of the cathode and the anode of the galvanic pile can be greatly enhanced, but the operation window of the differential pressure on two sides of the cathode and the anode membranes is narrowed, and the difficulty in managing the whole pressure of the galvanic pile is increased.
The influence of the whole pressure management problem of the galvanic pile on different operation conditions is different, and the influence is mainly summarized into two aspects: on one hand, the cathode and anode pressure management of the fuel cell system in the steady-state operation and loading and unloading processes is not in place, and unipolar or bipolar pressure fluctuation occurs, so that the internal reaction of the electric pile is unbalanced, and the problems of electric pile performance reduction, local water logging or local drying and the like are easily caused; on the other hand, in the emergency state of the system, the emergency capacity of the system on pressure management cannot keep up, so that the cathode and anode pressure of the system is excessively high instantaneously, membrane materials are damaged, and the service life of a fuel cell is shortened.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a fuel cell system with a bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balancing function, anode tail gas and cathode tail gas in the operation process of a fuel cell change the tail gas flow resistance through a bipolar pressure linkage device, so that the pressure of the cathode and anode tail gas of a stack outlet can be correlated under various system operation states, the stack outlet pressure keeps mutual balance, the pressure coping capability of the system under the conditions of steady-state working condition, dynamic load and unload power, fault condition, emergency shutdown and the like is enhanced, and the pressure operation range of the fuel cell system is greatly widened.

Further, the backpressure regulating process comprises three modes of anode tail gas backpressure regulation, cathode tail gas backpressure regulation or joint regulation of the anode tail gas backpressure and the cathode tail gas backpressure, and balance of the pile outlet pressure of the cathode and the anode can be realized;
taking the back pressure regulation of the anode tail gas as an example, the back pressure regulation process specifically comprises the following steps:
when receiving an anode tail gas backpressure regulation instruction, the controller 602 compares a currently acquired anode pressure detection value Psn with a preset anode pressure target value Psn, and when the anode pressure target value Psn is higher than the anode pressure detection value Psn, reduces the opening degree of the anode tail gas backpressure valve 502, otherwise increases the opening degree of the anode tail gas backpressure valve 502; further comparing the anode pressure target value Psn with the anode pressure detection value Psn, when the anode pressure target value Psn is lower than or equal to the anode pressure detection value Psn, maintaining the opening of the anode tail gas backpressure valve 502, otherwise, reducing the opening of the anode tail gas backpressure valve 502; further judging whether a shutdown instruction is received, finishing the anode tail gas backpressure regulating process when the shutdown instruction is received, and otherwise, continuously comparing the anode pressure target value Psn with the anode pressure detection value Psn;
the anode pressure detection value Psn is an arithmetic average value of an anode stack entering pressure detection value Ps1, an anode stack outlet pressure detection value Ps5 or an anode stack entering pressure detection value Ps1 and an anode stack outlet pressure detection value Ps5, and the anode pressure target value Psn is an arithmetic average value of an anode stack entering pressure value Ps1, an anode stack outlet pressure value Ps5 or an anode stack entering pressure value Ps1 and an anode stack outlet pressure value Ps5 corresponding to the optimal working state of the galvanic pile module 100;
the back pressure adjusting process of the cathode tail gas is the same as the back pressure adjusting process of the anode tail gas.
Further, the working state control method of the anode off-gas cut-off valve 501 and the anode off-gas backpressure valve 502 is as follows: when the fuel cell system adjusts the anode tail gas back pressure, the anode tail gas back pressure valve 502 works, and the anode tail gas cut-off valve 501 is closed; when the fuel cell system does not adjust the anode tail gas back pressure, the anode tail gas cut-off valve 501 works, and the anode tail gas back pressure valve 502 is closed; when the fuel cell system is in the emergency exhaust state, both the anode off-gas back-pressure valve 502 and the anode off-gas cutoff valve 501 are in the open state.
Further, the method for controlling the operating states of the cathode off-gas cut-off valve 503 and the cathode off-gas back-pressure valve 504 is as follows: when the fuel cell system performs the adjustment of the back pressure of the cathode tail gas, the back pressure valve 504 of the cathode tail gas works, and the cut-off valve 503 of the cathode tail gas is closed; when the fuel cell system does not adjust the cathode tail gas back pressure, the cathode tail gas cut-off valve 503 works, and the cathode tail gas back pressure valve 504 is closed; when the fuel cell system is in the emergency exhaust state, both the cathode off-gas back-pressure valve 504 and the cathode off-gas cutoff valve 503 are in the open state.
Further, the anode stack-out pressure Pe2 is equal to the sum of the pressure drop Δ Pe3 flowing through the stack anode tail gas discharge pipe 71 and the pressure drop Δ Pe2 flowing through the anode tail gas cavity 523, the pressure drop Δ Pe1 flowing through the anode tail gas outlet 526 to the system anode tail gas discharge port 505, and the atmospheric pressure Pe1 received by the system anode tail gas discharge port 505, that is: pe2 ═ Δ Pe3+ Δ Pe2+ Δ Pe1+ Pe 1;
the cathode stack-out pressure Pe4 is equal to the sum of the pressure drop Δ Pe6 flowing through the stack cathode tail gas exhaust pipe 72 and the pressure drop Δ Pe5 flowing through the cathode tail gas cavity 524, the pressure drop Δ Pe4 flowing through the cathode tail gas outlet 528 to the system cathode tail gas exhaust port 506, and the atmospheric pressure Pe3 experienced by the system cathode tail gas exhaust port 506, namely: pe4 ═ Δ Pe6+ Δ Pe5+ Δ Pe4+ Pe 3;
the lengths of the stack anode tail gas discharge pipe 71 and the stack cathode tail gas discharge pipe 72 are short, and the corresponding pressure drop delta Pe3 and pressure drop delta Pe6 can be ignored; the atmospheric pressure Pe1 and the atmospheric pressure Pe3 are approximately equal in value;
furthermore, when the numerical difference between the anode stack-out pressure Pe2 and the cathode stack-out pressure Pe4 is large, the numerical difference between the pressure drop Δ Pe1 and the pressure drop Δ Pe4 is large, and when Δ Pe1 is greater than Δ Pe4, the elastic diaphragm 521 expands towards the cathode tail gas cavity 524, so that the volume of the cathode tail gas cavity 524 is reduced, the pressure drop Δ Pe5 is increased, the difference between Δ Pe1 and Δ Pe4 is balanced, and the cathode and anode stack-out pressure balance is further ensured; when the delta Pe1 is less than the delta Pe4, the elastic diaphragm 521 expands towards the anode tail gas cavity 523, so that the volume of the anode tail gas cavity 523 is reduced, and the pressure drop delta Pe2 is increased to balance the difference between the delta Pe1 and the delta Pe4, thereby ensuring the pile-forming pressure balance of the cathode and the anode.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the invention provides a fuel cell system with a bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balancing function, which is characterized in that a tail gas subsystem is provided with a bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balancing device to physically isolate anode tail gas and cathode tail gas, and has the pressure linkage balancing function, so that the requirement of pile cathode and anode pressure management is met, the pressure stability of the fuel cell system in a full power range is improved, and the tolerance of the pile cathode and anode pressure management system to the pile cathode and anode single-pole flow resistance range is enhanced;
2. in order to respond to the dynamic change of the power consumption of the load, the supply amount of hydrogen at the anode side and air at the cathode side of the fuel cell needs to be changed continuously along with the load change rate, and when the change rate is higher, the differential pressure at the two sides of the cathode and the anode can fluctuate unstably;
3. the invention also provides a buffering and balancing space for the cathode and anode tail gas emission difference suddenly increased in the emergency shutdown process, avoids the problem of cathode and anode pressure unbalance of the galvanic pile in the emergency shutdown process, improves the stability of cathode and anode differential pressure in the emergency shutdown process, and enhances the emergency capacity of differential pressure management of a system in a fault state.

As shown in fig. 3, the working principle of the bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balancing device 5 in this embodiment to realize the cathode and anode stack-out pressure balance specifically includes:

in order to ensure that the pressure balance effect of the pressure passing through the bipolar tail gas pressure linkage balance device 5 is good, the lengths of the pile anode tail gas discharge pipe 71 and the pile cathode tail gas discharge pipe 72 are short, and the corresponding pressure drop delta Pe3 and the corresponding pressure drop delta Pe6 can be ignored; the atmospheric pressure Pe1 and the atmospheric pressure Pe3 are approximately equal in value;
the following three cases can be classified according to the operation requirements of the fuel cell system:
the first condition is as follows: wide power range operating pressure adaptation process for fuel cell systems
When the fuel cell system operates at low power, the hydrogen flow and the air flow required by the fuel cell stack 1 are relatively small, the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas flow are also relatively small, the pressure drop formed by the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas at each part of the stack after the stack is discharged is relatively small, the deformation amount of the elastic diaphragm 521 in the bipolar pressure linkage balancing device 5 is relatively small, and the cathode and anode stack discharge tail gas pressure can be kept similar; when the fuel cell system is gradually loaded to high power, the hydrogen flow and the air flow required by the fuel cell stack 1 are gradually increased, the flows of anode tail gas and cathode tail gas are also gradually increased, the pressure drop formed by the anode tail gas and the cathode tail gas at each part of the stack is gradually increased, the pressure drop difference formed by the tail 73 pipeline and the tail 74 pipeline is gradually increased, and at the moment, the deformation amount of the elastic diaphragm 521 is gradually increased so as to keep the pressure of the cathode and anode stack outlet tail gas close; the greater the difference in the flow rate of the off-gas between the cathode and anode of the fuel cell system, the greater the amount of deformation of the elastic diaphragm 521. When the numerical difference between the anode stack-out pressure Pe2 and the cathode stack-out pressure Pe4 is large, the numerical difference between the pressure drop Δ Pe1 and the pressure drop Δ Pe4 is large, and when Δ Pe1 is greater than Δ Pe4, the elastic diaphragm 521 expands towards the cathode tail gas cavity 524, so that the volume of the cathode tail gas cavity 524 is reduced, the pressure drop Δ Pe5 is increased, the difference between Δ Pe1 and Δ Pe4 is balanced, and the cathode and anode stack-out pressure balance is further ensured; when the delta Pe1 is less than the delta Pe4, the elastic diaphragm 521 expands towards the anode tail gas cavity 523, so that the volume of the anode tail gas cavity 523 is reduced, and the pressure drop delta Pe2 is increased to balance the difference between the delta Pe1 and the delta Pe4, thereby ensuring the pile-forming pressure balance of the cathode and the anode.
Case two: fuel cell system rapid variable load operating pressure adaptation process
In the rapid variable load operation process of the fuel cell system, the flow rate of the cathode and anode tail gas can be greatly changed, so that the pressure drop of the 73 pipelines and the 74 pipelines at the tail part of the cathode and anode can be continuously changed, the elastic diaphragm 521 is continuously adjusted to compensate the pressure drop difference formed by the 73 pipelines and the 74 pipelines at the tail part, and the pressure balance of the cathode and anode stack-out tail gas is ensured.
Case three: fuel cell system emergency shutdown pressure adaptation process
When the fuel cell system encounters a fault condition and an emergency shutdown occurs, the load 603 is emergently disconnected, the fuel cell stack 1 stops outputting electric energy, the hydrogen and air supply valves at the front end of the fuel cell stack 1 are emergently closed, because the electrochemical reaction of the fuel cell stack 1 stops, the amount of gas discharged by cathode and anode tail gas can be instantaneously and suddenly increased, the pressure drop difference formed by the tail 73 pipeline and the 74 pipeline is instantaneously increased due to the difference of the cathode and anode tail gas discharge rates, the elastic diaphragm 521 is instantaneously deformed to compensate the pressure drop difference formed by the tail 73 pipeline and the 74 pipeline, the pressure balance of the cathode and anode stack tail gas is ensured, a buffer space is provided for pressure fluctuation, and the pressure fluctuation of the cathode and anode stack tail gas is avoided from being greatly fluctuated.
