Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gas tank system and various methods for monitoring a filling of gas tank systems with one or more tanks.
  • Fuel cells are increasingly being used as energy converters, including in vehicles, to convert chemical energy stored in a fuel such as hydrogen together with oxygen directly into electrical energy.
  • Fuel cells have an anode, a cathode and an electrolytic membrane arranged between the anode and cathode. The fuel is oxidized at the anode and the oxygen is reduced at the cathode.
  • the fuel is usually supplied to the fuel cell via a pipe system from a tank in which the gaseous fuel is stored at high pressure.
  • a separating or shut-off valve is usually provided between the tank and a high-pressure part of the pipe system.
  • the high-pressure part is also typically connected to a pipe part connected to the fuel cell via a flow control valve.
  • US 10 030 816 B2 discloses a method and a system for filling a gas tank system. Disclosure of the invention
  • the present invention provides a method for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system with the features of claim 1, a method for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system with the features of claim 2, a method for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system with the features of claim 5, a method for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system with the features of claim 6 and a method for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system with the features of claim 7 as well as a gas tank system with the features of claim 10.
  • One idea underlying the invention is to detect an inadmissibly high pressure loss during the filling of a tank in a valve device that connects a high-pressure line system to the tank. Such inadmissible pressure losses in the valve device lead to underfilling of the tank. In particular in systems with several tanks, this can result in undesirable pressure equalization processes after the end of the filling.
  • the pressure loss is detected, in particular by recording the pressure in the high-pressure line system during filling and additionally evaluating a thermodynamic state variable in the tank or tanks during filling, by recording the pressure in the high-pressure line system and additionally evaluating a thermodynamic state variable in the tank or tanks before and after filling, by evaluating a temperature development in the several tanks after filling with subsequent removal of gas from the tanks or by evaluating the pressure curve in the high-pressure line system after filling with subsequent removal of gas from the tanks.
  • an error signal is generated by means of an electronic control device. This can include, for example, writing an entry in a data memory and/or issuing a warning signal.
  • One advantage of the invention is that the presence of valve devices whose permeability is reduced and which therefore make it difficult to completely fill the respective tank can be detected quickly and effectively.
  • the respective valve devices can advantageously be localized.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of a hydraulic circuit diagram of a fuel cell system with a gas tank system according to an embodiment of the invention
  • Fig. 2 is a flow chart of a method according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 3 is a flow chart of a method according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 4 is a flow chart of a method according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a flow chart of a method according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 6 is a flow chart of a method according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • the same reference symbols designate identical or functionally identical components, unless otherwise stated.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic of a fuel cell system 200 that can be used in a vehicle, for example.
  • the fuel cell system 200 comprises a gas tank system 100 and a consumer system 205.
  • the consumer system 205 has a fuel cell arrangement 210.
  • the fuel cell arrangement 210 has at least one fuel cell, but preferably several fuel cells connected electrically in series, which are designed to convert chemical energy stored in a gaseous fuel, such as hydrogen, together with oxygen directly into electrical energy.
  • the fuel cell arrangement 210 has a fuel supply connection 211, via which gaseous fuel can be supplied to the fuel cell arrangement 210, in particular to an anode of the at least one fuel cell.
  • the gas tank system 100 is explained below in connection with the fuel cell system 200, but is not limited to this use.
  • the gas tank system 100 has a plurality of tanks 1, a high-pressure line system 2, a number of first valve devices 3 corresponding to the number of tanks 1, an optional flow control device 5, a first pressure sensor 4 and a control device 6.
  • the gas tank system 100 also has a refueling connection or supply connection 20.
  • each tank 1 can be equipped with a second pressure sensor 7 and/or with a temperature sensor 9.
  • a gas tank system 100 with three tanks 1A, 1B, 1C is shown purely as an example. However, the invention is not limited to this. In general, at least two tanks 1 can be provided, although more than three tanks 1 can also be provided. Each tank 1 is designed to store gas, in particular hydrogen. For example, each tank 1 can be designed to store gas at a pressure of up to 800 bar.
  • the high-pressure line system 2 can in particular have a connecting line 21, a plenum 24 connected to the connecting line 21 and a number of connecting lines 23 corresponding to the number of tanks 1, each of which connects the plenum 24 to the respective tank 1. As shown in Fig.
  • the first tank 1A can thus be connected to the plenum 24 via a first connecting line 23A, the second tank 1B via a second connecting line 23B and the third tank 1C via a third connecting line 23C.
  • the connecting line 21 connects the plenum 24 to the consumer system 205.
  • a supply line 22 can also be provided, which is connected to the plenum 24 and the optional supply device 20.
  • the first valve devices 3 can each have a switchable solenoid valve 3 that can be switched between a closed state and an open state. In general, each first valve device 3 can be switched between a closed state and an open state. Optionally, each first valve device 3 can also have a filter 30, as shown schematically in Fig. 1. As shown schematically in Fig. 1, each valve device 3 is arranged between the tank 1 and the high-pressure line system 2. For example, each first valve device 3 can be arranged in a respective connecting line 23, as shown by way of example in Fig. 1. In the open state, the respective first valve device 3 connects the respective tank 1 to the high-pressure line system 2. In the closed state, the respective first valve device 3 separates the tank 1 and the high-pressure line system 2 from one another.
  • the optional flow control device 5 can also be switched between a closed state and an open state.
  • the flow control device 5 can also be referred to as a pressure regulator and is generally designed to vary a gas flow or a pressure of the flowing gas.
  • the flow control device 5 can have a second valve device, e.g. in the form of a solenoid valve, which can be switched between the closed state and the open state.
  • the flow control device is arranged between the consumer system 205 and the high-pressure line system 2, in particular between the consumer system 205 and the connecting line 21.
  • the flow control device 5 In the open state, the flow control device 5 connects the consumer system 205 to the high-pressure line system 2.
  • the closed state the flow control device 5 separates the consumer system 205 and the high-pressure line system 2 from one another.
  • the tanks 1 are thus connected in parallel to one another to the high-pressure line system 2 or are connected to it.
  • the tanks 1 jointly supply a gas mass flow to the consumer system 205.
  • the supply line 22 is connected to the supply connection 20, which can be designed, for example, as a plug connection for a tank nozzle. As shown in Fig. 1, a check valve 8 can be arranged in the supply line 22, which closes the supply connection 20 against gas escaping from the high-pressure line system 2. Gas from a supply source, e.g. a gas station, can be supplied to the tanks 1 via the supply connection 20 through the high-pressure line system 2 when the first valve devices 3 are open in a filling process.
  • a supply source e.g. a gas station
  • the first pressure sensor 4 is connected to the high-pressure line system 2 and is configured to detect a pressure in the high-pressure line system 2. As shown in Fig. 1, the pressure sensor 4 can, for example, detect a pressure in the plenum 24.
  • the second pressure sensors 7 are assigned to the tanks 1, with each second pressure sensor 7 being designed to detect a pressure in a respective tank 1.
  • the temperature sensors 9 can be assigned to the tanks 1, with each temperature sensor 9 being designed to detect a pressure in a respective tank 1.
  • the temperature sensors 9 are not necessarily arranged in the interior of the tank 1, as shown purely by way of example in Fig. 1, but can also be arranged on the outside of the tank 1, in which case Case a temperature in tank 1 is approximately determined based on the values recorded by temperature sensor 9.
  • the control device 6 is shown only schematically as a block in Fig. 1 and is implemented as an electronic control device 6.
  • the control device 6 can have a computing unit 61, such as a CPU, an ASIC, an FPGA or the like, and a data memory 62, in particular a non-volatile data memory such as a flash memory, an SD memory or the like, which can be read by the computing unit 61.
  • the control device 6 is connected to the first valve device 3, optionally to the flow control device 5 and to the pressure sensor 4 in a signal-conducting manner, for example by wire, such as via a bus system.
  • a wireless connection can also be provided, e.g. via WiFi or the like.
  • the control device 6 is designed to cause the gas tank system 100 to carry out one of the methods U, V, W, X, Y shown in Figs. 2 to 6 for monitoring the filling of the gas tank system 100.
  • software can be stored in the data memory 62 that can be executed by the computing unit 61 in order to cause the system 100 to carry out the respective method U, V, W, X, Y.
  • gas from a supply source e.g. a gas station
  • gas from a supply source can be supplied to the tanks 1 via the supply connection 20 through the high-pressure line system 2 when the first valve devices 3 are open during a filling process. It is desirable that all tanks 1 store essentially the same mass of gas at the end of the filling process.
  • pressure losses naturally occur at the first valve devices 3. If the pressure loss at one of the valve devices 3 becomes large, in particular significantly larger than at the other valve devices 3, this can lead to a desired filling quantity not being reached in the respective tank. Unacceptably high pressure losses can occur, for example, if the permeability of the filter 30 of the respective first valve device 3 is reduced.
  • Fig. 2 shows a sequence of a method U for monitoring the filling of a gas tank system 100.
  • the method U can be carried out on the gas tank system 100 shown in Fig. 1 and is explained below with reference to Fig. 1.
  • the method U can also be carried out in a system with only one tank 1.
  • step U1 gas is supplied to the tanks 1 via the high-pressure line system 2.
  • the first valve devices 3 are in the open state.
  • a first pressure in the high-pressure line system 2 is recorded over a predetermined recording period during the supply (step M1) of gas into the tank 1.
  • the first pressure can be continuously recorded by the first pressure sensor 4 and transmitted to the control device 6.
  • the control device 6 can thus record a temporal pressure curve of the pressure in the high-pressure line system 2.
  • the recording period can, for example, extend from the start of the gas supply in step M1 to a point in time at which the gas supply to the high-pressure line system 2 is terminated.
  • the recording period can comprise a discrete period of time, e.g. of more than 10 seconds, which lies between the time of the start and the end of the gas supply to the high-pressure line system 2.
  • a pressure gradient in the high-pressure line system is determined from the detected pressure, e.g. by means of the control device 6.
  • a pressure gradient can be formed for certain time periods, e.g. for time periods of 5 seconds each, of the detection period.
  • step U41 a second pressure in the tank 1 or the tanks 1 is recorded during the recording period, in particular continuously. This can be done, for example, by means of the second pressure sensors 7, which transmit the recorded pressure values to the control device 6.
  • the control device 6 can thus record a pressure curve in the tank 1 over the recording period.
  • step U42 a temperature in the tank 1 or the tanks 1 can be recorded during the recording period and transmitted to the control device 6, in particular continuously.
  • the control device 6 can thus record a temperature profile in the tank 1 over the recording period.
  • a pressure difference between the first and second pressures is determined.
