Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the automatic control field, concretely relates to novel gas flow control system of fuel cell car.
Background
The hydrogen fuel cell automobile generates electric energy by utilizing the electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen, so that a motor is driven to rotate, and the electric automobile obtains kinetic energy. Taking a proton exchange membrane fuel cell as an example, a solid polymer is used as an electrolyte membrane, air is used as an oxidant, hydrogen is used as fuel gas, and a bipolar plate adopts graphite of a gas flow channel or a metal plate subjected to surface modification. At the anode, hydrogen loses electrons under the action of a catalyst to generate hydrogen positive ions (also called protons), and a proton exchange membrane of the fuel cell promotes the hydrogen positive ions to be transferred from the anode to the cathode; at the cathode, oxygen in the air obtains electrons on the surface of the catalyst to form negative ions, and the negative ions and the positive hydrogen ions transferred from the anode to the cathode are subjected to chemical reaction to generate water, and the water is discharged together with residual unreacted tail gas through the gas diffusion layer. Therefore, when the hydrogen fuel cell is operated, it is necessary to proportionally supply hydrogen gas and air (oxygen gas) to the fuel cell in real time, and at the same time, discharge water generated by the reaction, and adjust the supply amount of the fuel gas and the oxidant gas according to the power output requirement of the fuel cell, so as to improve the use efficiency of the fuel cell.
The hydrogen fuel cell control system requires precise coordination of cathode oxygen content and anode hydrogen content. When the power required by the whole vehicle changes along with the external environment, the following change of the air-fuel ratio required by the fuel cell in the hydrogen fuel cell system also occurs. An electric control regulating valve in the hydrogen supply system controls the flow rate of hydrogen entering the fuel cell, and if the control precision of the hydrogen flow rate is poor, the output power of the fuel cell fluctuates. How to adjust the flow of hydrogen and oxygen fed into the fuel cell in time to realize the quick dynamic response of the power output of the fuel cell, and implement high-efficiency control according to the power demand of a hydrogen fuel cell automobile is a great hotspot in the research field of the hydrogen fuel cell automobile at present, and has important significance for the popularization and the application of the hydrogen energy automobile. In addition, the efficient and reliable fuel cell can reduce the power compensation requirement of the power cell, reduce the capacity requirement of the power cell and lighten the reconditioning quality of the hydrogen fuel cell automobile, and has important significance for the popularization and the application of the hydrogen energy automobile.
