Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for improving the water balance of fuel cells, in particular low-pressure fuel cells.
  • Fuel cells are electrochemical units that generate electrical energy by converting chemical energy onto catalytic surfaces of electrodes.
  • Main types of electrochemical cells include:
  • the cathode comprises at least one electrode support layer, which serves as a support for the catalyst.
  • anode electrode on which the oxidation reaction takes place through the release of electrons.
  • the anode consists of at least one support layer and catalyst layer.
  • At least one matrix which is arranged between the cathode and anode and serves as a support for the electrolyte.
  • the electrolyte can be in a solid or liquid phase and as a gel.
  • the solid-state electrolyte is advantageously converted into a
  • At least one separator plate which is arranged between the MEAs and is used for collecting reactants and oxidants in electrochemical cells
  • Anode gas chambers which are arranged between the anode-side separator plate and the MEA and through which the anode gas flows,
  • Cathode gas chambers which are arranged between the separator plate on the cathode side and the MEA and through which the cathode gas flows,
  • Cooling chambers through which a cooling medium flows and which serve to cool the cells
  • MEA membrane electrode assemblies
  • a fuel cell stack is created, hereinafter also referred to as a stack.
  • the anode gas chamber is separated from the cathode gas chamber by the membrane electrode unit, comprising an anode, a cathode and an electrolyte.
  • a cooling chamber is provided for cooling the cell, through which a cooling medium flows.
  • the electrical power supply runs in a series connection from cell to cell.
  • the fluid management of the oxidants and reactants takes place via collection and distribution channels to the individual cells in a parallel connection.
  • H2 + 1 O 2 -> H 2 O + process heat + electrical current.
  • Excess reactant and oxidant fluid is carried out of the cells.
  • the product water must be removed from the cell to maintain the efficiency of the electrochemical reaction. The electrolyte state should not be negatively affected.
  • the electrolyte resistance strongly depends on the water content of the electrolyte. To keep the voltage drop across the cell as low as possible, the electrolyte resistance should be minimized during cell operation. In order to meet this requirement, homogeneous drainage of the product water is sought.
  • the product water is usually discharged by means of the steam loading of the reaction gases. If the reaction gases are supersaturated, the liquid water is also pressed out of the gas chambers of the cells by means of the dynamic pressure of the reaction gases. A smoothing of the product water discharge over the cell surface is usually achieved by pre-moistening the dry reaction gases before entering the cell. This pre-moistening prevents the electrolyte from drying out in the gas inlet area of the cell. If the electrolyte dries out, the cell will fail.
  • FIG. 2 The exemplary structure of a fuel cell system with separate pre-humidification of the reaction gases is shown in FIG. 2.
  • the anode and cathode gases are pre-moistened in a humidifier before entering the fuel cell.
  • H2O separation via a porous layer adjacent to the cathode chamber is also known.
  • An exemplary embodiment is shown in FIG. 3.
  • the cooling chamber and the cathode chamber are arranged adjacent to one another by the porous layer, for example a porous separator plate.
  • Water usually flows through the cooling chamber. Because of the diffusion through the porous separator plate, this arrangement allows, on the one hand, the humidification of the cathode gas in the line entry area. On the other hand, the liquid water in the supersaturated area of the cell surface is transported out of the cathode gas chamber through the porous layer.
  • This arrangement partially compensates for the water load across the cell surface and thus also homogenizes the water content in the electrolyte, although despite these measures there is a high water vapor partial pressure difference between the cathode gas inlet and outlet.
  • the desired minimum of the electrolyte resistance is achieved in such cells only in parts of the cell area. Additional, separate anode gas humidification is also required here.
  • the water for this is usually obtained from the cathode gas.
  • This version cannot be used at temperatures below 0 ° C without frost protection measures for the cooling medium, water.
  • additional water for example from separate water tanks, must be fed to the cooling circuit, which is particularly undesirable in mobile applications. At operating temperatures above 65 ° C, more water is then discharged via the fuel cell exhaust air than is generated by the fuel cell process.
  • the object of the invention is to find a method with which it is possible to achieve a homogeneous electrolyte state over the entire cell area of the fuel cell for a wide temperature range without any technical measures or effort.
  • a water exchange between the cathode gas and the cooling medium is realized with an aqueous cooling medium which has a temperature-dependent water vapor partial pressure which is lower than that of water, via the porous separator plate arranged between the cathode gas chamber and the cooling chamber.
  • the porous separator plate arranged between the cathode gas chamber and the cooling chamber.
  • the inventive method humidifies and dehumidifies the electrolyte in a cell area.
  • a porous separator plate with the function described above can also be arranged on the anode side.
  • Another advantage is that a homogeneous electrolyte state can be achieved even at temperatures above 65 ° C without additional measures, e.g. a water tank will be needed.
  • the mass flow of dehumidification predominates - product water is transported from the cathode gas chamber in the direction of the cooling chamber - the mass flow of humidification - water is transported from the cooling chamber to humidify the cathode gas in the direction of the cathode gas chamber.
  • a balance between the water vapor partial pressure in the cathode gas and the water vapor partial pressure in the cooling medium is thus established for a specific operating temperature of the fuel cell.
  • Inorganic solutions for example buffer solutions or organic solutions, for example glycols, glycerol or salts of organic acids, can advantageously be used as the cooling medium.
  • the cooling medium can be a non-corrosive aqueous solution, emulsion or suspension. These solutions have a lower temperature-dependent water vapor partial pressure than pure water.
  • the method according to the invention can be used without additional frost protection measures at temperatures below 0 ° C.
  • the surface of the separator plate facing the cathode gas space can be hydrophilic and the surface facing the cooling chamber can be hydrophobic. This prevents the cooling medium from reaching the cathode gas space through the pores of the separator plate from the cooling chamber. It is also achieved that the product water formed in the cathode gas space can be transported through the pores into the cooling chamber.
  • the water transport between the cooling chamber and the cathode gas chamber can, however, also be influenced by the liquid level in the porous separator plate or by the mass transport path length of the water vapor in the porous separator plate, which can be adjusted by the pressure within the cooling chamber and / or cathode gas chamber.
  • Another way of influencing the water transport between the cooling chamber and the cathode gas chamber is to design the pore diameter.
  • the equilibrium between the water vapor partial pressure of the cathode gas and the water vapor partial pressure of the cooling medium can be set.
  • the water vapor partial pressure in the pores is set approximately according to the equation:
  • T temperature of the cooling medium
  • RD special gas constant of water vapor
  • a membrane separator with a membrane for moistening the anode gas is present.
  • the cooling medium is guided in the membrane separator along one side of the membrane and the dry anode gas is guided along the other side of the membrane. Due to the water vapor partial pressure difference between the two media, there is a water transport from the cooling medium to the anode gas, whereby this is moistened.
  • the membrane separator the product water absorbed by the cooling medium within the fuel cell is thus used to moisten the anode gas. A separate humidification of the anode gas is therefore not required.
  • the cooling chambers of the electrochemical cell stack, the membrane separator and a metering device for metering the cooling medium are connected in a circuit for the cooling medium. This ensures a continuous supply of cooling medium to the fuel cell stack.
  • the metering device advantageously ensures that only a certain part of the cooling medium emerging from the fuel cell stack is fed to the membrane separator. This allows the humidification of the dry anode gas to be set in a defined manner.
  • Another circuit for the anode gas is advantageously present, in which the electrochemical fuel cell stack and the membrane separator are connected.
  • anode gas that was not consumed in the fuel cell stack can be reused by leading it from the fuel cell stack to the membrane separator.
  • anode gas it is also possible for the anode gas to be metered into the fuel cell stack in sufficient quantity so that no excess anode gas is produced after the fuel cell stack. A return of the anode gas from the fuel cell stack to the membrane separator can thus be dispensed with.

  • the membrane 16 serves to allow the water contained in the cooling medium to pass from the chamber 17 into the chamber 18. Humidification of the anode gas flowing through the chamber 18 is thereby achieved.
  • the metering valve 10 is connected between the fuel cell stack 1 and the membrane separator 9. After flowing through the cooling chamber 4 of the fuel cell stack 1 through the metering valve 10, the cooling medium thus reaches the chamber 17 of the membrane separator 9, where the water contained in the cooling medium is separated off.

This expansion tank 11 is used to compensate for volume fluctuations in the cooling medium, caused by the water content, which varies depending on the temperature (operating temperature of the fuel cell).
