The second embodiment:
referring to fig. 1-4, on the basis of the first embodiment, the present invention provides a technical solution: a control method of a high-efficiency calibration system of a fuel cell air flow meter comprises the following steps:
the first step is as follows: first, S10 determines whether a certain time Tn, for example, 7d, has elapsed since the previous calibration of the fuel cell distance, the settings may be changed, if not, i.e., no in S10, the control is terminated, and if the operation stop signal S10 is received, the control is performed in S20;

The first step is as follows: closing the fuel cell inlet valve A4 to form a closed pipeline between the compressor A3 and the fuel cell inlet valve, wherein the volume of the closed space is Vn and is determined according to the system design, and the volume is a fixed value;
the first step is as follows: then S40 is entered to start the compressor and run for a preset time tn, and the change value delta P of P3 and the accumulated measurement value V1 of the flowmeter are recorded;
the first step is as follows: then S50 is entered to judge whether delta P is larger than delta Pn, if not, the established sealed space has leakage, S90 is executed to judge whether the leakage problem occurs more than 2 times, if S90 is yes, S110 is entered to send out pressure building fault alarm, and calibration control is stopped;
the first step is as follows: if the judgment of S90 is no, the process goes to S100, the valve A2 is opened to make the pressure of P3 equal to the atmospheric pressure, then the process goes to S40 to operate again, if the judgment of S50 is yes, the process goes to S60, and the calibration coefficient M1 is calculated;
the first step is as follows: the control system U0 stores M1 internally, then enters S70 to perform the whole process again to obtain M2, and then calculates and stores the calibration coefficient M to finish the calibration process of the air flow meter;
the first step is as follows: after calibration, when the fuel cell is operated again, if the fuel cell system calculates the air flow to be supplied as V according to the power generation demand, the flow F measured by the air flow meter can be calculated.
The formula for M1 is: m1 ═ Vn × Δ P/(V1 × Pa); wherein Pa is atmospheric pressure, and is determined according to local air pressure actual value.
The formula for M is: m ═ M1+ M2)/2.
The formula for F is: f is V/M.
As shown in fig. 3 below, the solid curve in the figure is Δ P, when a normal region is within a value of Δ Pn, and a fault region is over Δ Pn, the cause of the fault may be a pipeline leakage or a valve a4 cannot be completely closed, and the pressure change value of the fault region may not be used for calibrating the flow meter, so that an alarm needs to be given, and this control flow sets 2 confirmation operations, which reduces abnormal stop of the calibration process due to an unexpected situation (e.g. the first valve is not completely closed).
Example three:
referring to fig. 1-4, on the basis of the first embodiment, the present invention provides a technical solution: fig. 3 is a modified example of the present invention, in which S90-110 is replaced with S120-150 compared with the first embodiment, the other control and fuel cell structure principle is the same as that of the first embodiment, S120 determines whether the absolute value of the difference between the calibration coefficients obtained twice is lower than a preset value Δ M, Δ M is a calculation deviation value set according to an error such as a measurement error that may exist in the same calibration process twice, if yes, S80 is entered to perform the same operation as that of the first embodiment, otherwise, S130 is entered, because when the absolute value of the difference between the calibration coefficients obtained twice is higher than a set threshold, it means that an error that cannot be ignored occurs in the calibration process twice, S130 determines whether the measurement cycle has a problem of homogeneity twice, if yes, the pressure build-up failure alarm indicated in S150 is performed, and the calibration is stopped, otherwise, S140 is performed, the calibration process is resumed, and acquiring the calibration coefficient twice again to perform the judgment in S120 again, in this modification, the judgment of the original differential pressure deviation is adjusted to the judgment of the calibration coefficient deviation, so that the finally determined calibration coefficient makes the measured value of the flow meter approach to the required true value, and the measured value corrected by the calibration coefficient is restrained from deviating more from the true value.
