Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrochemical cell stack having means for maintaining constant mechanical load over the components in said cell stack.
- Electrochemical cells using a polymer membrane as electrolyte are interesting in the area of PEM fuel cells and PEM water electrolyser cells where protons constitute the carrier of ionic charge.
- PEM Proton Exchange Membrane
- Each cell consists of an assembly of a membrane and two catalytic layers on each side, i.e. a Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) where the catalytic layers constitute the electrodes and are in intimate contact with the membrane.
- MEA Membrane Electrode Assembly
- the MEA is further supported by electrode backings on each side, typically a porous plate, a mesh or a porous sheet with good electrically conductivity and with high electrochemical/chemical stability.
- the electrode backing has a certain integrity which matches the electrode layer and the operation regime.
- the water electrolysis process in a PEM cell is shown in Figure 1.
- PEM cells and similar cells, are in most practical applications arranged in a so-called bipolar design, i.e. the cells are connected in series, in a cell stack, where the current passes from one cell to another. Each cell is enclosed within so-called bipolar plates or end plates, which separate the individual PEM cells from each other and where electronically current passes from cell to cell. Between the bipolar plate and the electrode backing there must be some void space for transport of fluid in and out of the cell and at the same time there must be electrical contact between the bipolar plate (or end plate) and the electrode backing (as shown in Figures 2a and 2b).
- the electrical contact resistance represents a direct energy loss given by:
- the contact resistance is a function of the mechanical load that compresses the cell together, i.e. the compression force or the clamping force.
- the contact resistance as a function of the compression force (F) is given by:
- a PEM cell i.e. an electrolyser or a fuel cell
- heat is generated.
- the water content of the membranes is in equilibrium with the surrounding environment. Increased water content causes swelling of the membrane whereas decreased water content causes shrinking of the membrane.
- the dimensions of the other cell parts will also vary with temperature.
- each cell therefore expands and contracts according to the temperature caused by the heat generated during operation.
- the cell parts that support the electrodes e.g. gas diffusion layers in fuel cells, current/water/gas distribution layers and electrode supports, will undergo mainly elastic deformation.
- some constituents of a cell stack will be deformed plastically to a certain degree.
- a pressurised housing a pressure vessel
- the electrochemical cell is in open communication, or at least partly, with the interior of the housing. Still a compression force over the end plates of the cell body is necessary.
- Either the anode side or the cathode side must be in open communication with the vessel environment surrounding the cell stack, and the pressure difference between anode and cathode side must then be controlled externally. Depending on the specific cell design the MEA can withstand several bars pressure difference.
- the clamping pressure over the cell stack is important for maintaining electronic contact between the stacked components. Due to expansion and contraction of the cell stack during operation, and thereby relaxation of the clamping force, a means is necessary to maintain almost constant mechanical load over the cell stack.
- the conventional means clamp the cell stack between two end plates by several bolts and using springs to bear the load as shown in Figure 3.
- GB 497956 describes a very simple system where springs are inserted between a press plate and a first cell body end plate. Tie rods are pressing the second cell body end plate and the press plate together.
- EP 1231298-A1 describes another simple and a very common method.
- the tie rods, or bolts compress the cell body end plates together using springs between the bolt nuts and one cell body end plate.
- a similar design is also shown in WO 0209208-A2.
- JP 2003-160891 -A describes a more advanced system using a hydraulic cylinder between a press plate and one cell body end plate to maintain constant compression over the cell body when the cell is operating under varying pressure.
- US patent 3507704 describes a so-called regenerative alkaline fuel cell system, i.e. an electrochemical device that can operate both as an electrolyser and a fuel cell, where the cell body is inserted into a tank. The cell body is compressed by tie rods and springs between the bolt nut and one cell body end plate. Material compatibility of tie rods and springs with the chemical environment within the interior of the vessel and within the cell stack is very important.
- JP 2003-160891 -A describes a system where the oxygen pressure is used to compress the cell stack by pressing a moveable electrical end plate towards the opposite electrical end plate.
- EP 1304757-A2 describes an electrochemical cell body compressed between two plates. Since the plates become bent under compression of the cell stack, two electrical conductive elements, that undergo temporary plastic deformation, are inserted between each of the compression plate and each of the two cell body plates. Upon compressing the cell stack, the plastic deformation of the two elements secures high contact surface between the bent compression plates and the cell body end plates.
- the main objective of the present invention was to arrive at an electrochemical cell stack which is designed to maintain an almost constant load over said cell stack in order to secure long term operability of said cell stack.
- Another objective of the present invention was to arrive at an electrochemical cell stack which is designed to compensate thermal expansion or contraction of components of said cell stack during operation.
- a further objective of the present invention was to arrive at an electrochemical cell stack which is designed to secure proper sealing around electrical bolts and insulating the electrical end plate(s) from its environment.
- Still another objective of the present invention was to arrive at an electrochemical cell stack which is designed to avoid poisoning of its environment.
- the environment is the void space inside a housing where the cell stack is inserted.
- a cell stack having at least one electrochemical cell arranged between a first end plate connected to an electrical bolt and a second end plate connected to another electrical bolt, said stack having a housing, means for providing fixed support of said cell stack to said housing and means for maintaining a constant mechanical load over said cell stack.
- Said means for maintaining a constant load comprise at least one elastic pad inserted into the space between said celi stack and said housing wall.
- said pad is inserted into the space between one of said end plates and the adjacent end plate of said housing.
- the cell stack can also have an elastic pad in each end. The pad is then inserted into the space between each of said end plates and each of its adjacent end plate of said housing.
- An elastic pad means that the pad has the ability to recover its original shape partially or completely after the deforming force (thermal expansion or contraction) has been removed.
- said pad is made of silicon or another elastic polymeric material. Its shape can be spherical or it can be a pad with indentation on the side, i.e. like a bellow.
- the elastic pad can be in the form of two or more individual pads.
- the pad is placed on at least one of the end plates of the cell stack.
- the cell stack When in operation, the cell stack expands or contracts. This movement is countered by the compression and expansion of the pad thereby providing the necessary pressure on the cell stack at any time.
- the pressure acting on the several parts of the cell stack will be substantially constant and always so high that perfect tightness is secured. This will secure a long- term operability of said cell stack.
- the thickness of the pad is chosen such that its elastic properties are equivalent to those of the cell stack. Thereby any thermal elongation or contraction of the cell stack under operation will be compensated.
- the elastic pad secures a high contact surface throughout operation of the cell.
- the elastomeric compression pad is made of a material that is viscoelastic, and will undergo plastic deformation over time.
- the thickness of the pad must be much larger than the expected plastic deformation, in order to maintain a minimum load over the cell stack.
- an elastic pad has the advantage of bringing a compression pad into the housing without compromising the materials compatibility. Furthermore, said pad is electrical insulating and serves the purpose of isolating the bolt for electrical connection. Furthermore, the sealing properties of the elastic pad offer the option of bringing current-bolts of high electronic conductivity but with a poisoning-effect into the housing.
- the pad functions both as a spring and as a sealing. Hence, the conventional used springs, nuts and bolts are replaced with said pad.
- the housing can be a pressure vessel.
- Fig. 1 shows a membrane electrode assembly (MEA)
- Figs. 2a and 2b show possible concepts of bipolar plates and the integration of flow fields in a cell
- Fig. 3 shows a cell stack clamped between two end plates using conventional dish-springs to maintain a constant load
- Fig. 4 shows a cell stack inside a housing according to the present invention.
- Figure 1 illustrates a water electrolysis process in a PEM cell where water is fed to the anode side 1 and, under applied potential field, becomes split to oxygen gas, protons and electrons. Protons migrate to the cathode side 3 where it recombines with an electron to form hydrogen gas.
- FIGs 2a and 2b show two typical concepts where a) the flow pattern is integrated into the bipolar plate or b) a porous layer is inserted between the bipolar plate and the electrode backing. This porous layer must then provide electronic contact between the bipolar plate and the electrode backing and it must provide flow of fluid in and out of the cell compartment. Gaskets are placed around the electrode backing area between the membrane and the bipolar plate (not shown in Figure 2). Flow of fluid in and out of the cells is typically arranged through channels within the gaskets and the bipolar plates.
- Figure 3 shows a cell stack 4 of 10 cells connected in a bipolar arrangement, where the cells are clamped between a first end plate 1 and a second end plate 8.
- Number of cells can be from one to several hundred.
- the end plates are compressed together by a certain number of bolts 2, usually more than four bolts.
- Springs 5 are inserted on the bolts between the second end plate 8 and the nut 7 to maintain an almost constant clamping pressure.
- Figure 4 shows a housing comprising a wall 5 and a first end plate 2 and a second end plate 8.
- An electrochemical cell stack is compressed between end plates 2 and 8.
- the end plate 2 functions also as an electrical end plate and is connected to an electrical end bolt 1.
- the electrochemical cell stack 3 is arranged between said electrical end plate 2 and a second electrical end plate 6.
- the electrical end plate 6 is connected to an electrical bolt 10 and inserted into the housing and electrically insulated from the housing. The insulation is achieved by an insulation ring 9 between bolt 10 and end plate 8 and an electrical insulating elastic pad 7.
- the elastic pad 7 is placed between the electrical end plate 6 and end plate 8.
- the electrochemical cell stack is stacked on the top of the end plate 6, the end plate 6 is placed on the pad 7 and the end plate 8. After stacking, the wall 5 is placed on and fixed to the plate 8. End plate 2 is then positioned on the top of the cell stack. By exerting a force normal to end plate 2 the stack is compressed until sealing is obtained between the end plate 2 and the wall 5 and the end plate 8. End plate 2 and end plate 8 are fixed to the wall 5.
- Said elastic pad has the following distinct functions: -to insulate the electrical end plate (6) from the housing. -to assure sealing around electrical bolt (9).
