Description

Array type phase-change heat-transfer and hydrogen-storage reactor
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen storage reactors, in particular to an array type phase-change heat transfer hydrogen storage reactor.
Background
Hydrogen energy utilization is one of the important energy strategic directions to achieve "carbon peaking" and "carbon neutralization". In order to further promote the utilization of hydrogen energy, a safe and efficient hydrogen storage technology is urgent. Currently, there are three main hydrogen storage states: high pressure gaseous hydrogen storage, low temperature liquid hydrogen storage, and solid hydrogen storage based on chemisorption of the hydrogen storage material. Solid-state hydrogen storage is considered as one of the important development directions of future hydrogen storage technologies because of the advantages of high volume hydrogen storage density, strong safety and stability, convenience in large-scale storage and transportation, and the like.
However, in hydrogen storage reactors, the hydrogen absorption and desorption process requires management of heat and mass transfer, which is a challenge. To solve this problem, current research is focused on thermal management by configuring various types of heat exchangers and using heat transfer fluids. Through experiments and numerical simulation researches, scholars explore the application of heat exchangers such as finned tubes, spiral tubes, micro-channels and the like in hydrogen storage reactors. Research results show that the heat transfer coefficient and the heat exchange area of the heat exchanger are increased, so that the heat transfer of reaction heat can be effectively enhanced, and the speed of hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions can be accelerated.
For example, the reactors employing branched microchannel heat exchangers have 77%, 52% and 37% reduced hydrogen absorption times, respectively, compared to reactors without heat exchangers, with straight tube heat exchangers, and with spiral tube heat exchangers. However, high performance heat exchangers can complicate the reactor structure, for example, the complex microchannels in microchannel heat exchangers can be damaged by reactor bed expansion deformation and stress strain effects. In addition, in the hydrogen absorption process of the current hydrogen storage system, the reaction heat is directly discharged through the heat exchange fluid, so that the energy utilization rate is low.
Thus, although metal hydride hydrogen storage devices have advantages, there are still some short plates. Improving the reactor structure may further enhance the heat transfer performance and the hydrogen absorption and desorption rate to increase the efficiency and performance of the hydrogen storage system. With respect to the development of hydrogen energy utilization and hydrogen storage technologies, researchers are continually struggling to achieve safe and efficient hydrogen energy utilization, pushing the achievement of the goals of "peak-of-carbon" and "carbon neutralization".

Specifically, the sealing and limiting unit 300 is disposed inside and outside the sidewall of the first placement stage 101b, and includes a sealing airbag 301, an air pipe 302 communicating with the sealing airbag 301, a limiting post 303 contacting with the sealing airbag 301, and a return spring 304 sleeved on the limiting post 303.
The sealing air bag 301 is positioned between the first concave cavity A and the second concave cavity B, and the air inlet end of the air pipe 302 is positioned on the side wall of the inner cavity of the tank body 101; the side wall of the first placing table 101b is provided with a sliding groove 101b-1, the middle part of the sliding groove 101b-1 is also provided with a mounting groove 101b-2, the limiting column 303 slides in the sliding groove 101b-1, one end of the return spring 304 is connected to the side wall of the limiting column 303, and the other end is connected to the side wall of the mounting groove 101 b-2.
The axial length of the limiting post 303 is greater than that of the sliding groove 101b-1, and when the limiting post 303 is pushed completely, the end of the limiting post 303 can be inserted into the limiting groove 102f in a matching manner.
Further, compared with embodiment 2, the sealing air bag 301 is annular and is arranged in the first concave cavity A, and the air pipe 302 is communicated with the sealing air bag 301 for inflating and deflating the air bag; the sealing air bag 301 is a hose, and is embedded in the side wall of the first placing table 101b, the air inlet of the hose is communicated with the inner cavity of the tank body 101 and is contacted with hydrogen in the tank body 101, namely, after high-pressure hydrogen is filled in the tank, the sealing air bag 301 starts to play a sealing role. The limiting columns 303 are uniformly provided with a plurality of groups along the circumferential direction of the sealing airbag 301, one end of each limiting column 303 is in contact with the outer surface of the sealing airbag 301, the other end of each limiting column 303 extends into the sliding groove 101b-1, the middle part of each limiting column 303 is provided with a flange T and is limited in the mounting groove 101b-2, one end of the return spring 304 is connected to the side wall of the flange T, and the other end of the return spring 304 is connected to the side wall of the mounting groove 101b-2 and is used for keeping the limiting column 303 at an initial position.
When the limit post 303 is at the initial position, the end of the limit post 303 is always located in the sliding groove 101b-1, and the other end extends in the first cavity a. When the sealing airbag 301 is filled with hydrogen, the accommodating cavity between the first cavity a and the second cavity B is filled with the expanding airbag, the pushing force given by the airbag is larger than the elastic force of the return spring 304, the limiting post 303 is pushed to slide in the sliding groove 101B-1, and then the end part extends out of the notch of the sliding groove 101B-1 and is inserted into the limiting groove 102f at the bottom of the can cover 102, and at this time, the can cover 102 cannot be driven by threads to form a firm connection state. Only when the pressure in the can 101 drops to a predetermined pressure value, the pushing force given by the air bag is smaller than the elastic force of the return spring 304, the limit post 303 will be pulled back to the initial position by the return spring 304, and the separation of the can lid 102 and the can 301 can be driven again by the screw.
The rest of the structure is the same as that of embodiment 2.
Referring to fig. 1 to 9, in the process of assembling, the hydrogen storage material 203 is pressed into blocks, the blocks are placed in the storage cylinders 202, a plurality of groups of stacked storage cylinders 202 are connected in series through the bracket 201, a hydrogen storage cylinder string is placed in each placement cylinder 103b, after each placement cylinder 103b is fully filled, the whole storage plate 103 is placed at the second placement table 101c in the tank 101, each placement cylinder 103b is immersed in the phase-change composite material 104, after the tank 101 is placed inside, the tank cover 102 is covered, the tank cover 102 is rotated, and the tank 101 and the tank cover 102 are connected into a whole through screw thread fit.
After the connection is completed, high-pressure hydrogen is injected into the reaction tank through the air inlet and outlet pipe 102a, the injection of the high-pressure hydrogen drives the sealing limiting unit 300 to act, the tightness of the tank connection is improved, and the firmness of the tank connection is prevented.
Examples of the embodiments
In this example, mg/MgH2 is used as the hydrogen storage material 203, and sodium nitrate (melting point 307 ℃ and latent heat of phase change of 174 kJ/kg) is selected as the phase change composite material 104 under the working conditions that the initial temperature is 300 ℃ and the hydrogen absorption pressure is 1.0MPa (corresponding reaction equilibrium temperature is 371 ℃) and the hydrogen release pressure is 0.1MPa (corresponding reaction equilibrium temperature is 280 ℃); when the hydrogen absorption pressure is increased to 3.0MPa (the corresponding reaction equilibrium temperature is 426 ℃), the phase-change composite material 104 can be selected from lithium sodium potassium carbonate ternary salt with a higher melting point (the melting point is 397 ℃ and the phase-change latent heat is 278 kJ/kg). Compared with sodium nitrate, the ternary salt of lithium sodium potassium carbonate has larger latent heat of phase change and can store more reaction heat.
