Proton exchange model fuel cell (PEMFC) is an electrolyte with perfluorinated sulfonic acid type solid polymer, platinum/carbon is eelctro-catalyst, hydrogen or purification reformation gas are fuel, and air or pure oxygen are oxidant, and having the graphite of gas flow channel or the metallic plate of surface modification is bipolar plates.
Flow field on the bipolar plates plays a part gas to be distributed, and the mobile direction of guiding reaction gas is assigned to each place of electrode with guaranteeing the reacting gas uniformity, participates in electrochemical reaction.The flow field of prior art mainly contains parallel groove, flow field such as netted, snakelike.All there are pluses and minuses separately in various flow fields, and are simple in structure as mesh flow field, and distribution of gas is even, but the resistance drop increasing, there is bigger etching problem in the general simultaneously metal material that adopts; The parallel groove flow field is to use maximum gas flowfields at present, and is simple in structure, processing easily, and resistance drop is little, but gas distributes existing problems, particularly under the high electric density, gas distributes serious uneven, influences gas transfer and the eliminating that generates water in the cell reaction process.There is the big problem of reaction gas resistance in serpentine flow because the flow field is longer.
Summary of the invention
The utility model purpose is to provide a kind of gas distributing uniformity, drainability Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells gas smoothness preferably.
To achieve these goals, the technical scheme that the utility model is taked is: a kind of used in proton exchange membrane fuel cell gas flowfield, comprise the parallel groove flow field segments, distribute flow field segments, reaction gas inlet and reaction gas outlet, the centre is the parallel groove flow field segments, two ends are for distributing flow field segments, the distribution flow field segments at two ends is connected with middle parallel groove flow field segments, reaction gas is gone into, outlet is communicated with the distribution flow field segments at two ends respectively, the baseplane that it is characterized in that described distribution flow field segments is provided with equally distributed oval dispensing head, spacing 0.3-0.9mm between the adjacent oval dispensing head; Described oval dispensing head is the elliptical cylinder of projection on the baseplane of distributing flow field segments, and the elliptical cylinder height is consistent with middle flow field height, and the length of elliptical cylinder is 2-5mm, and the width of elliptical cylinder is 0.5-1.2mm.
A kind of used in proton exchange membrane fuel cell gas flowfield described in the utility model, the area summation that it is characterized in that the distribution flow field segments that is provided with oval dispensing head at described two ends is the 5-15% of the gas flowfield gross area, and the area of the distribution flow field segments that is provided with oval dispensing head at two ends is identical.
A kind of used in proton exchange membrane fuel cell gas flowfield described in the utility model is characterized in that the length that described two ends are provided with the distribution flow field segments of oval dispensing head is 15-30mm, and the length of middle parallel groove flow field segments is 300-350mm.
Compared with prior art, advantage of the present utility model is:
When 1) the reacting gas process was provided with the distribution flow field segments of oval dispensing head, gas was easy to form turbulent flow at the dispensing head position, and gas is reallocated, and can make gas be distributed to the surface of electrode equably, changes the mass transfer that holds reacting gas;
2) improve the fuel cell output performance; Improve the distribution that battery outlet port generates water simultaneously, reduced battery outlet port, improve the stability of battery operation by the problem of water logging.
