A concrete moisturizing of this scheme is used:
1# to N # raw material water tanks are adopted and configured according to the scale of the hydrogen production system, and a pumping device adopts two pumping loops which are used one by one; the two water replenishing pumps are used for replenishing water for the sets of hydrogen production system equipment (01-i).
4 x 1000 cubic hydrogen production equipment is needed, 4 sets of hydrogen production systems with 1000m3/H are arranged, the working pressure of the hydrogen production systems is 2.0MPa, 2 sets of 10 cubic raw material water tanks are adopted according to the hydrogen demand scale, and according to the chemical reaction formula, 2H2O ═ 2H2 ═ O2 = (electrified); about 1L of water is consumed to produce 1m3 of hydrogen; therefore, the maximum water replenishing amount required by 4 sets of 1000m3/h equipment is 4m3/h, the model selection of the water replenishing pump is not less than 6m3/h,
when a set of separators are independently replenished, taking the size of an actual container as an example, the required quantity of the apparatus from low-liquid-level replenishing water to high-liquid-level replenishing water is about 1m3The maximum effective water replenishing flow is 5m3The water replenishing time is about 1/5-60-12 minutes (calculated according to 10 minutes) because the water replenishing time is the difference of the pump output flow of 6m3/h and the water consumption of the water replenishing process of 1m 3/h.
According to the characteristic curve of the pump, a bypass pressure stabilizing valve DN20 is selected, and the diameter is selected to ensure that the maximum backflow flow can circulate and the minimum flow for the operation of the pump is ensured.
When 4 sets of systems are replenished simultaneously, the requirement of the system is about 3.5m3Maximum water supplement of 2m3The water replenishing time is about 1.75h, and the system can continuously and stably run in the time period.
The time method comprises the following steps:
according to the gas yield proportion of the system, in the water electrolysis process, 2H2O ═ 2H2 ═ O2 × (power on), the yield of hydrogen is twice that of oxygen, the liquid carried out by the gas is considered to be the same (containing diluted alkali liquor and needing to be washed away in a washer), therefore, the water replenishing times of the hydrogen-oxygen separator are calculated according to 2:1 (the water replenishing proportion is not less than the proportion), and the water replenishing time and the water replenishing quantity of each set of equipment are different in consideration of different operation conditions of the equipment; the water replenishment logic is set as follows:
according to the calculation result, when the time for replenishing water once on the hydrogen side and the oxygen side is considered, the single time period is not less than 2 x 3-6 h (when replenishing water simultaneously, the time for replenishing water once is longest, about 1.75h is considered here as 2h, hydrogen is replenished for 2 times simultaneously in 1 period, and oxygen is replenished for 1 time simultaneously); take 24 hours and a day as an example, water is supplemented in a period of 4P +2 hours.
Example (a):
0-6 points are taken as a period, water is supplemented at 0-4 points on the hydrogen side, and water is supplemented at 5-6 points on the oxygen side;
6-12 points are taken as a period, water is supplemented at 7-10 points on the hydrogen side, and water is supplemented at 11-12 points on the oxygen side; and then sequentially increased.
In each time period, independently replenishing water on the hydrogen side and the oxygen side; only water is supplemented to the hydrogen separator or the oxygen separator, and each pneumatic valve is set to be in an interlocking state, so that only one valve is ensured to act. And in addition, water is supplemented from the lowest liquid level by judging the lowest liquid level of the 01-i gas-liquid processors.

each operation unit simultaneously judges the water replenishing requirement, when the ith equipment needs water replenishing, the requirements of the hydrogen and oxygen side of the water replenishing are firstly judged, and the total number of the 2i pneumatic valves in the system is 2.
Preferably, when a single set of equipment needs to be supplemented with water, only one valve (the third valve or the fourth valve corresponding to the set of equipment) is opened, and the other valves are interlocked.
When the set 2 or other sets need water supplement, if the water supplement is consistent, the water supplement at the same side can be started, and the time for judging the water supplement end of the last stage is used.
Example (c): the system totally counts 4 sets of systems, and every set of system moisturizing is according to every 2 times of hydrogen side of moisturizing after, and oxygen side moisturizing is 1 time, and when only single set of system moisturizing, 1# equipment moisturizing is accomplished the back, judges minimum liquid level moisturizing device i # through the liquid level and starts, and every set of system counts alone simultaneously and judges the direction of moisturizing.
Example (c): the system totally amounts to 4 sets of systems, and every set of system moisturizing is according to every 2 times the hydrogen side after, and oxygen side moisturizing is 1 time, and during 1# equipment moisturizing hydrogen side, if 2# equipment judges that needs moisturizing hydrogen side, then the moisturizing valve is opened simultaneously, if 2# equipment judges that needs the moisturizing side, then waits for 1# moisturizing to accomplish, judges in proper order like the same, and the minimum liquid level equipment of preferential moisturizing.
Liquid level method:
according to the gas production ratio of the system, the water replenishing times of the hydrogen and oxygen separators are calculated according to the ratio of 2:1, the water replenishing time and the water replenishing quantity of each set of equipment are different in consideration of different operation conditions of the equipment, and the water replenishing logic is set as follows:
and each operation unit simultaneously judges the water supplementing requirement and performs graded water supplementing on the liquid levels of the hydrogen separator and the oxygen separator.
According to calculation, the maximum time of single water replenishing is 1.75h, in order to further improve the safety of the system (avoid too long water replenishing time of a single device to cause too low liquid level), the water replenishing liquid level can be divided into 4 grades (between the low water replenishing liquid level and the high water replenishing liquid level), and when the minimum water replenishing liquid level is judged to be 3/4, the water replenishing pump is started in advance to replenish water.
Preferably, when a plurality of machines simultaneously need water supplement, and when the water supplement sides are consistent, water supplement at the same side can be started;
when the equipment is normally shut down, water is supplemented to the upper limit liquid level in the separator at the same time, and the separator is ensured to be in a safe liquid level state.
