Problems solved by technology

It also has some disadvantages. First of all, it is very difficult to process. It is necessary to fix the copper block on the PCB, and then process the flow channel on the copper block, and ensure that all the end faces of the copper block are on the same plane.
In the entire flow field board structure, the PCB board is only responsible for deriving the current and voltage behind the independent copper block, that is, the PCB board is...

Embodiment Construction

[0019] refer to figure 1 , using the existing PCB technology, the gas flow channel 2 is directly processed on the printed circuit board (PCB board 1), and the ribs 3 between the flow channels are covered with an independent metal plating area 4. When measuring the local current density of the fuel cell , the reaction gas flows in the gas flow channel 2, and the metal coating area 4 on the rib 3 is tightly pressed against the membrane electrode, which is responsible for leading out the current of the membrane electrode area corresponding to the metal coating area. The metal plating area 4 adopts copper plating or silver plating. An electrical connection point 5 is provided on the metal plating area 4, and the electrical connection point 5 is a gold plating point.

[0020] refer to figure 2 , the current derived from the metal plating area 4 leads to the wire 6 on the back of the PCB through the electrical connection point 5 and passes through the small resistor 7, and finall...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of fuel cells, mainly relates to the field of the internal current measurement of the fuel cells, and discloses a fuel cell current density measurement flow field plate. The fuel cell current density measurement flow field plate comprises a PCB board (1); gas flow channels (2) are engraved on the PCB board (1); a plurality of mutually independent metal plating layer areas (4) are arranged on ribs (3) among the gas flow channels (2); connecting points (5) are arranged on the metal plating layer areas (4); a guide wire (6) is arranged on the back surface of the PCB board (1); one end of the guide wire (6) is electrically connected with one metal plating layer area (4) through the connecting point (5), and the other end of the guide wire (6) is converged on a terminal block (9) through a resistor (7). The use of flow field plate for the measurement of the local current of the fuel cell can allow the regional division to be more detailed and realize the measurement of the two-dimensional local current measurement, the structure is simple, the use is convenient, and the processing cost is low.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fuel cells, and mainly relates to the field of measuring the internal current of the fuel cell, in particular to a flow field plate for measuring the local current density of the fuel cell. technical background [0002] As a new type of power generation device, proton exchange membrane fuel cell has been paid more and more attention by various countries. The structure of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell includes: cathode and anode flow field plates, sealing gaskets and membrane electrodes (MEA). The membrane electrode (MEA) consists of a diffusion layer, a catalytic layer and a polymer membrane. The diffusion layer is generally carbon paper or carbon cloth, and the catalytic layer is platinum / carbon particles. The fuel of this battery is hydrogen, the oxidant is oxygen or air, hydrogen is decomposed into protons and electrons in the anode catalytic layer, protons reach the cathode through the proton exchange...
