The standby power system that a kind of modular fuel-cell and energy-storage battery are formed
Technical field
The utility model relates to fuel cell, especially relates to the standby power system that a kind of modular fuel-cell and energy-storage battery are formed.
Background technology
Fuel cell can be used in bank as stand-by power supply, hospital, the airport, business premises etc. substitute lead-acid battery and the diesel engine generator widely applied at present, have environment friendly and pollution-free, noiselessness, light, be convenient to many advantages such as maintenance.
Stand-by power supply is as improving constantly along with people's quality of the life, the fast development of society's suitability for industrialized production, modern society and economy have reached indispensable degree to the dependence of electric power, and electric power has become the master switch of society and economical operation, do not had electricity, all just are absorbed in comprehensive paralysis rapidly.
Introduce fuel cell in stand-by power supply field applicable cases with stand-by power supply in the example that is applied as of communication aspects below:
For the communication base station stand-by power supply, in case the large tracts of land grid power blackout, this will have a strong impact on people's normal life, even social economy and human life's safety are brought about great losses.In the ice and snow disaster of last year and the Wenchuan earthquake in this year, can it serves to show the influence that outage brings to communicating by letter.
Be used as the main employing lead accumulator of answering the communication base station stand-by power supply at present and carry out with the combined mode of diesel generating set, the present situation of this stand-by power supply is increasing with the contradiction between the demand of current stand-by power supply, mainly show: a. lead accumulator finite capacity, it is 10 hours that standby time generally is no more than, and does not satisfy great emergent dangerous situation demand at all.B. and lead accumulator exist weight big, in the life-span short (about general 3-5), pollute big, streaking one, life-span be cannot say for sure shortcoming .c. such as card in order to prolong the generating standby time, be equipped with a large amount of diesel generation oil locomotives, generally is that the base station about 10-20 is equipped with an oily locomotive of generating.Most of the time, oily locomotive seal up for safekeeping need not, often need not be bad to oily locomotive, need often to safeguard that regular maintenance is more frequent that workload is big.When running into large-area power-cuts or great dangerous situation, oily locomotive is not enough.
Fuel cell is as a kind of generating equipment of energy-conserving and environment-protective, and volume is little, and is in light weight, noiselessness, low price, safeguard low, but continuous operation characteristics such as (48 hours or longer standby times) are suitable for use in the stand-by power supply field very much.
In China, telecommunication apparatus supplier, fuel cell manufacture merchant just actively get involved communication base station stand-by power supply field.In fuel cell applications use, as everyone knows: the switching on and shutting down operation of fuel cell is bigger to the life-span influence of fuel cell, mainly be because when the fuel cell switching on and shutting down are operated, can produce than higher local overvoltage, this will cause the oxidation of fuel-cell catalyst carbon carrier, make fuel cell performance decay than very fast.We can be by changing the method for anode-side catalyst conductive carrier, as use the method for corrosion resistance metal conductive oxide carrier instead, improve the catalyst tolerance to oxidation of fuel cell, reduce the influence of fuel cell switching on and shutting down, as introducing in patent 200610027287.2 to fuel battery performance.Also can reduce the local overpotential of fuel cell by the method that the fuel cell bringing onto load starts, but, often cause the permanent lesion of fuel cell being that fuel cell starts relatively danger with big load under lower voltage.
The problem of another one aspect is: in present fuel cell stand-by power supply field, PLUGPOWER as the U.S., ECOPOWER, the fuel cell stand-by power supply technical scheme that ITATECH company is adopted mainly is a kind of substituting independently-powered technical scheme of fuel cell.In these technical schemes, fuel cell is as the stand-by power supply of communication usefulness, its output voltage is a kind of soft voltage characteristic, must be through offering the communication power consumption equipment after the DC/DC voltage stabilizing, and the communication power consumption equipment has the requirement of comparison strictness to the output voltage of DC/DC.In addition, because fuel cell is as a kind of battery of soft voltage characteristic, it is when extraneous load variations, and the fuel cell voltage excursion is bigger, and this making to DC/DC requires than higher, and the price comparison height.External these company's fuel cell system more complicated add that somewhat expensive DC/DC etc. makes whole backup power system of fuel cell cost very high, and are difficult with traditional lead-acid battery competition on price, thereby also directly influenced the speed of applying of fuel cell.It should be noted that: in fuel cell system of new generation (air cooling self-humidifying fuel cell system), the cost of fuel cell system is almost suitable with DC/DC, the cost of fuel cell-powered part directly can be reduced by 50% if remove the direct connected mode of DC/DC.
In patent CN200810204755.8, introduced the standby power system that fuel cell is formed with energy-storage battery, in this system the stand-by power supply of the fuel cell of an integral body with the energy-storage battery composition, in this system, for matched load, the system voltage that fuel cell is formed with energy-storage battery changes in the scope of the broad that compares, the voltage that can cause power-supply system so is not very stable, and, the energy-storage battery Capacity Ratio that is complementary for the large current charge that prevents energy-storage battery and fuel cell is bigger.Moreover in this patent, fuel cell needs ventilation apparatus that remaining fuel cell voltage is consumed when quitting work, depletion rate is relatively slow, and attrition voltage is not thorough, in the process, air is a state more than needed, and hydrogen is under-supply relatively, easily battery is caused damage.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments the utility model is elaborated.
Embodiment 1
As shown in Figure 1, the utility model backup power system of fuel cell, this system comprises fuel cell, energy-storage battery is a lead-acid battery 9, hydrogen source 1, electromagnetically operated valve 2, temperature sensor, voltage detector, current sensor 10, fan 5 and relevant circuit control section, described fuel cell is composed in parallel by a plurality of fuel cell modules 6, and a plurality of fuel cell modules 6 all connect lead-acid battery 9 by a unilateral diode 7 separately, described hydrogen source 1 connects fuel cell by electromagnetically operated valve 2, described temperature sensor and fan 5 are arranged on the fuel cell, and described voltage detector is connected lead-acid battery 9 with current sensor 10, and described relevant circuit control section comprises the control circuit board 4 and the main control board 8 of fuel cell.This system adopts the mode output power of modular fuel-cell 6 with energy-storage battery 9 parallel connections that are complementary, wherein fuel cell is with directly linking together by unilateral diode 7 between the energy-storage battery, each fuel cell module all has an independently gate-controlled switch 3, and this switch can directly carry out the modular battery both positive and negative polarity short circuit operation.Main control board 8 connects each fuel cell module 6, lead-acid battery 9 and current sensor 10 respectively, and main control board 8 is controlled the break-make of hydrogen electromagnetically operated valve 2 according to the signal of current sensor 10, thereby whether the hydrogen of realizing hydrogen source 1 enters fuel cell module 6.
The communication standby power system that fuel cell is formed with energy-storage battery, operation principle, process and matching are as follows:
Load 11 is communication equipment, load 4 consumed powers are generally 1.5-2.5KW in this system, its consumed power is relevant with the traffic of communication equipment, the operating voltage range of communication equipment is generally under the 40V-60VDC usual condition, the electric power that load 11 consumes comes from 220VAC alternating current (or 380VAC), the 220VAC alternating current offers load 11 and lead-acid battery 9 after changing into the 55.5VDC direct current by AC/DC, the operating voltage of lead-acid battery 2 monolithics is 1.8V-2.35V, and operating voltage range is 43.2-56.4VDC after 24 series connection.The battery pile that fuel cell 1 is composed in series for the multi-disc monocell, monocell sheet number can be the 10-100 sheet, voltage range is very wide, but in this system, be complementary with lead acid accumulator 2, therefore the voltage range of its work is 43.2-56.4VDC, and what use in the present embodiment is the module fuel cell that 80 monocells are formed.Lead-acid battery can be the lead-acid battery of a 40AH.
Fuel cell 6 in the system adopts modular fuel-cell, and the capacity of lead-acid battery 9 can be less than 60AH.
Under the usual condition, do not work during main control board 8 detects that system not do not continue big output current.After the outage of extraneous 220VAC electricity, lead-acid battery begins to export electric energy, at this moment, if main control board is the 35A electric current according to the output signal that current sensor 10 transmits, fuel cell is judged the both end voltage of lead-acid battery then, if the voltage at plumbic acid two ends is lower than voltage 50.5V, main control board will be opened electromagnetically operated valve 2, and fuel cell module is started working.If the single module of fuel cell module output 15A/48.8V, 12A/50.5V will have 3 modules to start working in the system so, and the electric current that has 1A like this charges to lead-acid battery.Along with the carrying out of charging, the voltage of lead-acid battery raises gradually, and the output current of fuel cell can will further reduce.Voltage after whole system is stable may be at 50.8V.If this moment, load variations was 40A, lead-acid battery will be exported the electric current of 5A, the consumption of lead-acid battery electric energy, and the voltage of system will reduce, because total output current of 3 battery modules can reach 45A when 48.8V, this system voltage can be stabilized in more than the 48.8V.In the low power consumption phase of communication equipment, such as demand current is 10A, and one of them fuel cell module work just can meet the demands.
After external commercial power has connection, rising and system power that main control board 8 can detect system voltage become 0A or reverse charging electric current, this moment, the fuel cell supply oxygen quit work with fan, because lack oxygen, the fuel cell module output current reduces significantly, because the existence of unilateral diode, at this moment, fuel battery voltage will keep with the approaching level of lead-acid battery voltage, this moment can closed gate-controlled switch 3, make its voltage discharge clean, close hydrogen electromagnetically operated valve 2, fuel cell remnants.
In the above-described embodiments, fuel cell module can be the module that power output does not wait, can do more careful adjusting to the output of system like this, a plurality of fuel cell modules 6 can be 2-10 module, certainly, fuel cell module in parallel is many more, should be meticulous more to the adjusting of whole power output, but also can increase system cost simultaneously.
