First embodiment
First, as shown in fig. 2, the present invention provides a combined compression system for a hydrogen refueling station, which mainly comprises: a hydrogen source 1, a composite compression system 2, a high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 and a hydrogenation machine 4. The hydrogen source 1, the composite compression system 2, the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 and the hydrogenation machine 4 are sequentially connected, the composite compression system 2 comprises a diaphragm compressor 21 and a piston compressor 22 which are connected in parallel, in a parallel pipeline of the composite compression system 2, a first electromagnetic valve 51 is arranged on the upstream of the diaphragm compressor 21, a second electromagnetic valve 52 is arranged on the downstream of the diaphragm compressor 21, and a third electromagnetic valve 53 is arranged on the upstream of the piston compressor 22.
The piston compressor adopted in the first embodiment has the advantages of being fast in starting, wide in applicable pressure range, high in compression efficiency, strong in adaptability and the like, and can be started preferentially under the condition that the diaphragm compressor cannot be started timely, so that the reaction time of the compression system is prolonged.
The working principle of the first embodiment is: during operation, the composite compression system 2 extracts hydrogen from the hydrogen source 1, compresses the hydrogen, stores the compressed hydrogen in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3, and when the pressure of the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 reaches a rated pressure, the diaphragm compressor 21 and the piston compressor 22 in the composite compression system 2 stop operating, that is, the first electromagnetic valve 51, the second electromagnetic valve 52 and the third electromagnetic valve 53 are all closed. When a vehicle needs hydrogenation, the hydrogenation machine 4 injects hydrogen in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 into the vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottle by using pressure difference through certain control logic, and the hydrogenation station control system monitors the pressure of the hydrogen in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3. When the pressure in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank is lower than the set value, the diaphragm compressor 21 (the first electromagnetic valve 51 and the second electromagnetic valve 52 are opened, and the third electromagnetic valve 53 is closed) and/or the piston compressor 22 (the first electromagnetic valve 51 and the second electromagnetic valve 52 are closed, and the third electromagnetic valve 53 is opened) in the compound compression system 2 are started to work until the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 reaches the set pressure value, and the process is repeated.
In this embodiment, the diaphragm compressor 21 and the piston compressor 22 are used in parallel, and when the composite compression system 2 is started, the piston compressor 22 is started quickly, so that hydrogen can be discharged quickly, the reaction time of the compression system is prolonged, and the risk of shutdown of a hydrogenation station during maintenance of a single compressor is effectively avoided. After the diaphragm compressor 21 is started, the requirement of the maximum discharge capacity of hydrogen can be met.
Second embodiment

The working principle of the second embodiment is: when the composite compression system works, the diaphragm compressor 21 or the piston compressor 22 in the composite compression system 2 extracts hydrogen in the hydrogen source 1, stores the hydrogen in the corresponding high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 after compression, and stops working when the pressure of the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 reaches the rated pressure. When a vehicle needs hydrogenation, the hydrogenation machine 4 injects hydrogen in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 into the vehicle-mounted hydrogen storage bottle by using pressure difference through certain control logic, and the hydrogenation station control system monitors the pressure of the hydrogen in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3. When the pressure in the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank is lower than the set value, the diaphragm compressor 21 (the first electromagnetic valve 51 and the second electromagnetic valve 52 are opened, and the third electromagnetic valve is closed 53) and/or the piston compressor 22 (the first electromagnetic valve 51 and the second electromagnetic valve 52 are closed, and the third electromagnetic valve is opened 53) in the compound compression system 2 are started to work until the high-pressure hydrogen storage tank 3 reaches the set pressure value, and the process is repeated.
Since two sets of compression systems are shared in the second embodiment, when one of the diaphragm compressor 21 and the piston compressor 22 is maintained or repaired, the other of the diaphragm compressor 21 and the piston compressor 22 can normally operate, and the risk of shutdown of the hydrogen station during maintenance of the single compressor is effectively avoided.
