Online forecasting method and device for residual life of fuel cell

Abstract

The invention discloses an online forecasting method and device for the residual life of a fuel cell, and the method comprises the following steps: obtaining the mean cell voltage-time data under a calibration working current through collecting voltage-time data and current-time data when a fuel cell stack is in operation, and obtaining the voltage attenuation rate of the fuel cell stack; predicting the available life of the fuel cell stack through a linear formula if the cutoff mean cell voltage under the calibration working current is greater than a mean cell voltage of a preset separation point under the calibration working current, or else predicting the available life through a nonlinear formula; obtaining the residual life of the fuel cell stack according to the difference between the available life and the consumed life; and displaying the residual life of the fuel cell stack in real time. The method achieves the real-time updating of the attenuation rate of the fuel cell according to the voltage-time data collected in real time, thereby updating the prediction value of the residual life, achieving the online forecasting, improving the accuracy of a prediction result, and improving the prediction real-time performance.
