Although the low-power hydrogen fuel cell has limited heat generated by reaction and is not suitable for waste heat recovery, the high-power hydrogen fuel cell has very much heat, and if the heat is not utilized, the heat waste rate is very high.

The hydrogen injection valve on the hydrogen pipeline of the anode of the hydrogen fuel cell references the fuel injection nozzle of the traditional engine and the high-frequency valve group of the CNG engine. The hydrogen injection valve is a high-frequency opening and closing valve, has extremely high response speed, but the flow of a single hydrogen injection valve is smaller, and a plurality of hydrogen injection valves are often arranged in the high-frequency valve group so as to meet the requirement of large flow and further meet the power requirement.

Herein, "a" means not only "only this one" but also "more than one" case.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the present embodiment provides a hydrogen supply system for an anode of a hydrogen fuel cell, including an intake pipe, a first pipe, a second pipe, and a stack pipe. The input end of the air inlet pipeline is communicated with an external hydrogen source, the output end of the air inlet pipeline is communicated with the input end of the first pipeline, the output end of the first pipeline is communicated with the input end of the electric pile pipeline, and the output end of the electric pile pipeline is communicated with the hydrogen inlet of the external electric pile 6; the first pipeline is provided with a proportional valve 2 and a pressure reducing device 3 in sequence. The second pipeline is connected in parallel with the first pipeline, and the input end and the output end of the second pipeline are respectively communicated with the output end of the air inlet pipeline and the input end of the pile pipeline; the second pipeline is sequentially provided with an on-off valve 8 and a hydrogen spraying valve group 9, and the hydrogen spraying valve group 9 comprises a plurality of hydrogen spraying valves which are connected in parallel on the second pipeline.
When the electric pile 6 needs small flow of hydrogen, the proportional valve 2 on the first pipeline is closed, the first pipeline is disconnected, the switch valve 8 on the second pipeline is opened, and the hydrogen from the hydrogen source enters the hydrogen inlet of the electric pile 6 through the air inlet pipeline, the second pipeline and the electric pile pipeline; the hydrogen flow is regulated and controlled by controlling the opening and closing of each hydrogen injection valve in the hydrogen injection valve group 9 on the second pipeline. When the electric pile 6 needs medium-large flow hydrogen, the switch valve 8 on the second pipeline is closed, the second pipeline is disconnected, the proportional valve 2 on the first pipeline is opened, and the hydrogen from the hydrogen source enters the hydrogen inlet of the electric pile 6 through the air inlet pipeline, the first pipeline and the electric pile pipeline; the hydrogen flow is regulated and controlled by controlling the opening of the proportional valve 2 on the first pipe. When the electric pile 6 needs to have the maximum power output or even the maximum power output, the hydrogen quantity needed by the electric pile 6 needs to be simultaneously operated by the hydrogen spraying valve and the proportional valve 2 to meet the maximum hydrogen supply demand, at the moment, the duty ratio of the proportional valve 2 on the first pipeline is opened to the maximum value, the switching valve 8 on the second pipeline is opened, and the first pipeline and the second pipeline are communicated.
The high-power hydrogen fuel cell in the prior art is improved from a low-power hydrogen fuel cell, and the hydrogen flow rate is adjusted by adjusting the opening quantity of the hydrogen injection valves in the hydrogen injection valve group 9 in the low-power hydrogen fuel cell, so that when the rated power of the hydrogen fuel cell is increased in the prior art, the requirement of increasing the hydrogen flow rate in the hydrogen fuel cell is met by increasing the quantity of the hydrogen injection valves in the hydrogen injection valve group 9. However, the huge number of hydrogen injection valves not only can bring problems of high noise, high cost, high failure rate, poor consistency and the like, but also can bring difficulty in control and increase the risk of hydrogen leakage at the anode end. For this reason, the present embodiment employs the proportional valve 2 to satisfy the demand for a large hydrogen flow rate of the high-power hydrogen fuel cell. Meanwhile, when the flow rate of the hydrogen is large, the pressure of the hydrogen flowing through the proportional valve 2 in the first pipeline is large, and for this purpose, the pressure reducing device 3 is arranged at the downstream of the proportional valve 2, so that the pressure of the hydrogen entering the hydrogen inlet of the electric pile 6 meets the requirement. The proportional valve 2 has a low accuracy of small flow control and a nonlinear flow range, which is an electromagnetic gas flow control valve that outputs a gas flow proportional to an input current signal, i.e., the output gas flow can be steplessly and smoothly adjusted by controlling the input current signal, which is referred to as a linear flow range in this section, but the minimum flow of the proportional valve 2 has a limit value, and when the flow is further reduced, the flow instantaneously becomes zero. Therefore, the second pipeline is parallel to the first pipeline, when the hydrogen with small flow is needed, the hydrogen flows from the second pipeline, and the flow is regulated by the hydrogen spraying valve group 9 on the second pipeline, so that the problems are solved, and the defect of insufficient control precision of the proportional valve 2 when the hydrogen is supplied with the small flow is overcome.
The structure of the present embodiment will now be described.
The pressure reducing device 3 may be a reducer union. The diameter of the input end of the reducer union is larger than that of the output end, so that the pressure of the hydrogen is reduced after the hydrogen passes through the reducer union. Of course, other pressure reducing devices 3, such as nozzles, etc., may be employed in other embodiments.
In this embodiment, the required hydrogen flow is calculated according to the target power of the galvanic pile 6, and then the opening of the proportional valve 2 or/and the opening and closing of each hydrogen injection valve in the hydrogen injection valve group 9 are regulated according to the required hydrogen flow. However, there is a difference between the amount actually consumed by the stack 6 and the expected amount. For this purpose, a first pressure detection device 4 is provided on the first conduit, and the first pressure detection device 4 is provided downstream of the pressure reduction device 3; a second pressure detection device 10 is provided on the second pipe, and the second pressure detection device 10 is provided downstream of the hydrogen injection valve group 9. The flow of the hydrogen is related to the pressure of the hydrogen, and the opening of the proportional valve 2 and/or the opening and closing of each hydrogen injection valve in the hydrogen injection valve group 9 can be further adjusted and controlled according to the pressure of the hydrogen in the pipeline. Specifically, the first pressure detecting device 4 and the second pressure detecting device 10 may each employ a pressure sensor.
For safety reasons, a safety valve 5 is provided on the stack piping. When either one of the first pressure detecting device 4 and the second pressure detecting device 10 detects that the pressure in the corresponding pipe is higher than the acceptable pressure range of the pile 6, the relief valve 5 is opened.
A shutoff valve 1 is arranged on an air inlet pipeline, and the shutoff valve 1 is a total switch of the whole hydrogen pipeline in the anode hydrogen supply system of the hydrogen fuel cell. In this embodiment, there are two hydrogen pipelines, which are (1) large-flow hydrogen pipelines: air inlet pipeline-first pipeline-pile pipeline; (2) small flow hydrogen path: intake duct-second duct-stack duct. When the hydrogen supply system of the anode of the hydrogen fuel cell works normally, the shutoff valve 1 is in an open state, and when unexpected situations occur and the hydrogen supply is required to be disconnected or the hydrogen supply system of the anode of the hydrogen fuel cell does not work, the shutoff valve 1 is closed, so that the hydrogen source can not flow into the hydrogen supply system of the anode of the hydrogen fuel cell any more.
The hydrogen supply system of the hydrogen fuel cell anode further comprises a hydrogen circulation pipeline, the input end of the hydrogen circulation pipeline is communicated with the reaction outlet of the external electric pile 6, a hydrogen circulation pump 7 is arranged on the hydrogen circulation pipeline, the output end of the hydrogen circulation pipeline is respectively communicated with the first pipeline and the second pipeline, the junction of the output end of the hydrogen circulation pipeline and the first pipeline is arranged at the downstream of the proportional valve 2, and the junction of the output end of the hydrogen circulation pipeline and the second pipeline is arranged at the downstream of the switch valve 8. The unreacted hydrogen in the electric pile 6 is pumped and pressurized by a hydrogen circulating pump 7 and then enters a first pipeline or/and a second pipeline for recycling. Specifically, the communication between the output end of the hydrogen circulation pipe and the first pipe may be located between the proportional valve 2 and the pressure reducing device 3 or between the pressure reducing device 3 and the first pressure detecting device 4; the connection between the output of the hydrogen circulation line and the second line may be between the on-off valve 8 and the hydrogen injection valve block 9.
There is provided a control method for a hydrogen fuel cell anode hydrogen supply system, which is applicable to a hydrogen fuel cell anode hydrogen supply system (but does not mean that the hydrogen fuel cell oxygen hydrogen supply system has only one control method). The control method comprises the following steps:
s1: obtaining the required hydrogen flow according to the target power of the electric pile 6;
s2: judging whether the required hydrogen flow is greater than a first threshold, if so, entering S3, and if so, entering S4;
s3: closing the switch valve 8, and regulating the proportional valve 2 according to the required hydrogen flow;
s4: the opening degree of the proportional valve 2 is adjusted to be zero, a closing valve is opened, and the hydrogen injection valve group 9 is regulated and controlled according to the required hydrogen flow.
Further, the control method further includes S5: the closing valve is opened, and the proportional valve 2 and the hydrogen injection valve group 9 are regulated according to the required hydrogen flow. Correspondingly, S2 further comprises: and when the required hydrogen flow is greater than the first threshold, judging whether the required hydrogen flow is greater than the second threshold, if so, entering S4, and if so, entering S5.
In addition, the pressure of the gas in the pipeline at the downstream of the pressure reducing device 3 can be always monitored, and the proportional valve 2 can be regulated and controlled according to the pressure of the gas in the pipeline at the downstream of the pressure reducing device 3 and the required hydrogen flow; meanwhile, the gas pressure in the pipeline at the downstream of the hydrogen spraying valve group 9 is always monitored, and the hydrogen spraying valve group 9 is regulated and controlled according to the gas pressure in the pipeline at the downstream of the hydrogen spraying valve group 9 and the required hydrogen flow. Of course, when it is detected that the gas pressure in any one of the piping downstream of the pressure reducing device 3 and the piping downstream of the hydrogen injection valve group 9 is greater than the third threshold value, the safety valve 5 provided on the stack piping is also opened.
The hydrogen injection valve has the advantages of high response speed, high small flow precision, small flow and high noise; the proportional valve 2 has the advantages of large flow rate, low noise and low control precision of small flow rate and has a nonlinear flow area. According to the embodiment, the defect that the control precision of the proportional valve 2 is insufficient during small-flow hydrogen supply and the flow of the hydrogen injection valve is insufficient during large-flow hydrogen supply is overcome by the arrangement method of the hydrogen injection valve group 9 and the proportional valve 2 in parallel connection. Specifically:
1) The closed-loop control technical scheme of the hydrogen injection valve group 9+the second pressure detection device 10 (here, closed-loop control of the hydrogen injection valve group 9 according to the data detected by the second pressure detection device 10) meets the requirement that when the electric pile 6 is in an idle working condition, the hydrogen is slightly consumed or even not consumed by regulating and controlling the opening time of each hydrogen injection valve in the hydrogen injection valve group 9. Specifically, when the galvanic pile 6 needs small flow hydrogen, the advantages of high accuracy and high response speed of the small flow control of the hydrogen injection valve are fully utilized, and the hydrogen enters the switch valve 8 and the hydrogen injection valve from the shutoff valve 1 and enters the galvanic pile 6 through the second pressure detection device 10 and the safety valve 5. Wherein, the effect of each partial valve of low-flow hydrogen gas circuit does: the shutoff valve 1 is a main switch of the whole hydrogen pipeline; when the flow is smaller, the proportional valve 2 is completely closed, the switch valve 8 is opened, and hydrogen enters the hydrogen injection valve group 9; the hydrogen injection valve group 9 controls the flow of hydrogen injected into the stack 6, and the second pressure detection device 10 collects pressure signals and opens the safety valve 5 when the pressure is higher than the acceptable pressure range of the stack 6.
2) The proportional valve 2+the closed-loop control technical scheme of the first pressure detection device 4 (here, closed-loop control that the proportional valve 2 is adjusted according to the data detected by the first pressure detection device 4) adjusts and controls the opening of the proportional valve 2 by determining the working condition of the galvanic pile 6, so as to meet the requirement of the galvanic pile 6 for high-flow hydrogen. Specifically, when the galvanic pile 6 needs medium-large flow hydrogen, the advantage of large flow of the proportional valve 2 is fully utilized, and the hydrogen enters the galvanic pile 6 from the shut-off valve 1, the proportional valve 2 and the pressure reducing device 3 through the first pressure detecting device 4 and the safety valve 5. Wherein, the effect of each partial valve of high-flow hydrogen gas circuit does: the shutoff valve 1 is a main switch of the whole hydrogen pipeline; the proportional valve 2 can realize large-flow hydrogen supply, and the electric pile controller FCU gives a control signal to the proportional valve 2 to accurately control the hydrogen quantity entering the electric pile 6; because the stack end generally has a bearable maximum pressure value, the membrane electrode of the stack 6 can be damaged if exceeding the maximum pressure value, and because the upstream gas pressure in the pipeline of the high-flow hydrogen gas path is generally higher than the downstream gas pressure, the pressure reducing equipment 3 can be arranged to reduce the pressure, so that the pressure of the hydrogen entering the stack 6 is ensured to be within an acceptable pressure range of the stack 6; the first pressure detection device 4 collects a pressure signal and opens the safety valve 5 when the pressure is higher than the acceptable pressure range of the galvanic pile 6.
