Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrochemical fuel cell stack according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Prior art fuel cell stacks include at least one, but usually a plurality of individual fuel cells that are stacked next to or on top of one another.
  • a single cell consists of the so-called membrane electrode unit, abbreviated as MEA, of anode, cathode and a proton-conducting electrolyte membrane arranged between them.
  • MEA membrane electrode unit
  • Another gas distribution structure with channels for guiding the cathode gas is provided on the cathode side. In particular, it contains oxygen and water, some of which is formed in the electrochemical reaction at the cathode.
  • the gas distributor structures are usually in the form of a channel structure on the surface of a e.g. metallic, plate realized.
  • the anode-side gas distributor structure of an individual cell and the cathode-side gas distributor structure of the adjacent cell are usually carried out on the two flat sides of the same plate.
  • cooling chambers are provided within the stack, through which a liquid or gaseous cooling medium flows. These can be arranged anywhere in the stack and within a single cell. For example, a cooling chamber can be assigned to each individual cell. However, it is also possible for a plurality of individual cells to be assigned to one cooling chamber.
  • FIG. 1 shows a fuel cell stack with convective liquid water cooling in accordance with the prior art.
  • a liquid cooling medium in particular water, through which inside the fuel cell stack.
  • Stacked arranged cooling chambers passed. After leaving the stack, it will heated cooling water to dissipate the heat taken into a cooler.
  • These known fuel cell stacks are preferably operated with a small temperature difference in the cooling water between inlet and outlet of approximately 10 ° C. in order to keep the cooler as compact as possible for removing the fuel cell waste heat.
  • this fuel cell stack is also preferably operated at temperatures greater than 60 ° C. in order to achieve sensible efficiencies, the known versions of the cathode water vapor can be condensed only to a very small extent within the fuel cell stack.
  • An additional heat exchanger is therefore arranged outside the fuel cell stack, with which the water vapor present in the cathode gas is condensed. This serves e.g. the purpose of maintaining the water balance across the entire fuel cell system.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a fuel cell stack with which a substantial part of the water vapor present in the cathode gas can already be condensed within the stack, so that condensation in the downstream condenser can be substantially reduced or even becomes completely unnecessary.
  • the area in which the cooling medium enters the fuel cell stack and the area in which the cathode gas emerges from the fuel cell stack overlap at least partially, so that in this area of overlap, the water vapor in the cathode exhaust gas can be condensed out. Condensation of the water vapor within the stack is thus achieved, so that a separate condenser for condensation is dispensed with can be, or this can be dimensioned much smaller than in the known systems.
  • the essential material conversion of the electrochemical fuel cell reaction basically occurs in the entry area of the cathode gas.
  • low dew points typically below 40 ° C.
  • the cooling medium inlet area and the cathode gas outlet area By covering the cooling medium inlet area and the cathode gas outlet area according to the invention, low dew points (typically below 40 ° C.) are reached in the area of the cover, which lead to the desired strong condensation of the water vapor in the cathode gas.
  • only a small amount of heat is absorbed by the cooling medium in the entry area of the cathode gas, ie where the essential conversion of the fuel cell reaction takes place.
  • the fuel cell according to the invention is advantageously operated with a gaseous cooling medium which, compared to the cooling media normally used, such as e.g. Water or Gykol has a much lower heat capacity. If higher temperature differences are desired, a defined setting of the temperature difference homogeneously across each cell of the fuel cell stack is not possible with cooling media that have a high heat capacity without a disproportionately high control effort, since only a very small and therefore poorly controllable coolant flow is required. If, on the other hand, you choose a coolant with a lower heat capacity, a higher coolant flow, which is much easier to regulate, is necessary to maintain the same temperature difference.
  • a gaseous cooling medium which, compared to the cooling media normally used, such as e.g. Water or Gykol has a much lower heat capacity.
  • This Adaptation can be carried out by locally restricted measures in the area of the overlap of the coolant inlet area and the cathode gas outlet area or complementary thereto in the remaining area of the cell. These measures can be, for example, an adaptation of the geometry with regard to the channels. In particular, the channel cross section, number of channels per area or the arrangement of the channels can be spatially varied. Further possible geometrical adjustments concern the influencing of the contact surface by ribs, webs, grooves or needles or the like in the flow channels.
  • a material with good thermal conductivity can be present in the area of condensation in the inlet area of the cooling medium and / or a material with poor thermal conductivity in the remaining area of the cell.
  • the materials can be applied both in layer form to the surface of the channels, and can also be introduced into the carrier material itself.
  • FIG. 5 shows the voltage-current density characteristics of a fuel cell stack according to the invention in comparison to a known fuel cell stack
  • FIG. 6 shows an embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention with locally adapted channel geometry in the area of the condensation; 7 shows an embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention with locally adapted use of heat-conducting / heat-insulating materials. 8 shows an embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention with separate guidance of cathode gas and cooling medium;
  • FIG 9 shows an embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention, in which a part of the cooling medium flows through the cathode-side gas distributor structure as cathode gas after flowing through the cooling medium distributor structure.
  • Fig. 2 shows a first embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention in a schematic representation.
  • a plate is shown, e.g. Made of metal, on the surface of which a gas distributor structure for the cathode gas is incorporated.
  • the gas distribution structure is only shown schematically here. It consists of one or more serpentine or meandering channels, as are known per se to the person skilled in the art.
  • the cathode gas enters the cell through an opening, passes through the flow channel or channels and exits the cell again at the diagonally opposite opening.
  • inlet area and outlet area of a fluid in the sense of the present invention are to be understood to mean not only the immediate area of the perforations, but also their closer surroundings, measured along the fluid flow. In this area, the metabolism due to the electrochemical fuel cell reaction is very low or practically no longer available. In the example shown, e.g. the section of the flow channel from the last change of direction to the opening with the cathode gas outlet area.
  • the cooling medium in this embodiment essentially enters the cell over the entire edge length of the plate and flows in cross flow to the cathode gas (the cooling medium flows on a distributor structure on the back of the plate shown).
  • the cooling medium inlet area and cathode gas outlet area overlap to a large extent. This area of coverage where the condensation takes place is outlined.
  • the ambient air is used as the cooling medium.
  • Typical temperatures for cathode gas and cooling medium at the inlet and outlet are also shown. It can be seen that the temperature differences between inputs and leakage in both fluids - compared to the known fuel cells - are relatively high. The temperature differences are in the range from 30 to 45 ° C. Dew points below 40 ° C are reached at the cathode gas outlet. This saves a separate condenser for condensing the water in the cathode gas.
  • FIG. 3 Another embodiment according to the invention is shown in FIG. 3. It differs from the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 essentially only in another gas distributor structure. This is designed as a parallel gas distributor structure.
  • the gaseous cooling medium e.g. ambient air
  • the cooling medium inlet area and cathode gas outlet area overlap in essential parts. This area of coverage where the condensation takes place is outlined.
  • the air cooling can advantageously be carried out via a radiator.
  • 4 shows a corresponding embodiment.
  • the radiator is arranged directly in front of the fuel cell stack and blows the air into the cooling channels or cooling chambers of the fuel cell stack.
  • the cooling air to be supplied to the stack can also be conveyed into the stack from the radiator via a line.
  • FIG. 5 shows the voltage-current density characteristics of a fuel cell stack according to the invention with air cooling in comparison to a known fuel cell stack with water cooling.
  • the values shown were obtained by measurements on a cell stack from ten fuel cells ("10-cell").
  • Graphite was used as the base material for the bipolar plates. It can be seen that the two characteristics are almost identical. The in-stack condensation of the water vapor obtained according to the invention can thus be achieved without loss of efficiency.
  • 6 shows a further embodiment according to the invention. A plate is shown, on the side facing away from the viewer, the gas distributor structure shown in FIG. 2 or 3 for guiding the cathode gas is present. The distributor structure for the cooling medium is shown on the side facing the viewer.
  • the cathode gas enters the cell through an opening in the plate, passes through the flow channel (s) (not visible here) and exits the cell at the diagonally opposite opening.
  • the cooling medium enters the cooling channels at the lower edge of the plate and leaves them at the opposite edge.
  • the area of coverage of the cooling medium inlet area and cathode gas outlet area, in which the condensation essentially takes place, is bordered. In this area of coverage, additional ribs are arranged within the channels in order to enlarge the contact area. This increases the heat exchange between the coolant and cathode gas in this area and thus has a favorable influence on the condensation.
  • FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of the invention with which the local heat exchange over the cell surface is varied by additional measures.
  • the structure of the plate corresponds to that shown in FIG. 6 with the exception of the ribs not present here in the area of the condensation, so that reference is made to avoid repetition.
  • a heat-insulating layer is present on the channel surface within the area of coverage of the cooling medium inlet area and cathode gas outlet area.
  • the heat exchange can be reduced in this area by appropriate selection of layer thickness and layer material in order to avoid possibly undesirable high temperature gradients in the condensation area.
  • This layer can e.g. be a self-supporting layer or film that is glued to the surface. However, it is also possible to apply a thin layer of lacquer or to introduce the additional material directly into the carrier layer.
  • heat-insulating materials can be used in the device according to FIG. 6 or 7 in the area outside the overlap of the cooling medium inlet area and the cathode gas outlet area.
  • MEA denotes the membrane-electrode assembly, which on the one hand is adjacent to the anode-side gas distributor structure AS and on the other hand from the cathode-side gas distributor structure KS.

  • a cooling air flow directed vertically upward is advantageously present in the stack, so that the cooling air flow is supported by the thermals that occur.
  • FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment of the fuel cell stack according to the invention, in which part of the cooling medium is used as cathode gas after flowing through the cooling medium distributor structure.
